For years, photonic quantum computing has been stuck at two modes.
When Microsoft Research tested GPT-4o inside its new embodied AI benchmark, the model confused a flame with its reflection — then continued as if the scene matched what it expected to see, not what it actually saw.
What if a robot could watch a video of someone doing a task, imagine how to do it itself, and then just do it? That is the idea behind Large Video Planner, a new robot foundation model from researchers at Harvard's Kempner Institute, MIT, and UC Berkeley.
Comet 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak should have destroyed itself.
A warehouse robot traffic jam sounds like a minor problem.
Google DeepMind released a research toolkit on Thursday designed to measure whether an AI model can harmfully manipulate a human and a finding that punctures a claim the lab industry has been trading on: that safety generalizes. It does not. The work, published Thursday on DeepMind's blog, desc...
The night the Pentagon's AI counsel told the White House it had a problem, nobody was sure how to describe what had gone wrong. On Jan.
A team at the Shenzhen International Quantum Academy has demonstrated multi-qubit entanglement using a superconducting processor built from dual-rail erasure qubits — an architecture that treats the dominant error type in superconducting systems as detectable rather than invisible.
Your GPU is lying to you about how busy it is. When an AI accelerator reports high utilization, the assumption is that it is grinding through matrix multiplications at full throttle.
IBM published a blog post this week calling it "the most impressive match" between a quantum simulation and real experimental data — a quantum computer's recreation of the energy spectrum of a magnetic material called KCuF3, checked against actual neutron scattering measurements from two national...
Astronomers have confirmed a second planet actively forming in a young planetary system 437 light-years away — and they caught it the same way you'd separate a firefly from a spotlight: extremely precise hardware. WISPIT 2 is a five-million-year-old star, young enough that its planets are still ...
When AI agents run in production, they accumulate context the way hoarder apartments accumulate newspapers — except the rent is paid in tokens.
Astronomers have clocked gas hurtling out of a nearby galaxy at more than 3 million kilometers per hour — and the reading is making some old models look incomplete. A team led by Erin Boettcher, an astrophysicist at the University of Maryland and NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, used the XRIS...
Graphene receiver research published this month in Nature Communications demonstrates wireless data detection at sub-THz frequencies, hitting 3 gigabits per second in a laboratory setup.
OpenAI formalized something this week that security researchers have been doing informally for two years: treating AI-specific vulnerabilities as a legitimate, fundable discipline.
Fujitsu and the University of Osaka have published two papers suggesting that quantum chemistry simulations for industrially relevant molecules could be tractable with roughly 100,000 physical qubits — not the millions the field has long treated as the entry fee for useful quantum computation. T...
LeWorldModel solves the problem that has kept JEPA methods from scaling — and you can train it on a GPU in an afternoon. A team from Mila, NYU, Samsung, and Brown published arXiv 2603.19312v1 on March 13, 2026, introducing LeWorldModel (LeWM), the first JEPA (Joint Embedding Predictive Architect...
