    Google’s New Willow Chip Accelerates Time to Market for Quantum Computing, Experts Say

    Google has unveiled Willow, its latest quantum computing chip, claiming it can perform tasks that normally take the fastest supercomputers an unthinkable amount of time, in just under five minutes. The tech giant's announcement comes as the race to bring quantum computers to market heats up, with companies including IBM, Microsoft, Amazon, and Nvidia investing billions into the next-gen technology. Google says that Willow can significantly reduce errors or disruptions at the quantum level during...

    The idea of quantum computing may feel a lot like stepping into the world of Marvel Studios’ Ant-Man series and exploring the Quantum Realm. In the movies, Scott Lang and his team venture into a bizarre space where the usual rules of physics don’t apply, unlocking incredible, almost magical possibilities. Like the Quantum Realm, quantum computing challenges our understanding of how the world works. By tapping into the principles of quantum physics—like superposition (the ability for quantum bits...

    Google CEO Warns the ‘Low-Hanging Fruit’ Era of AI Development Is Over

    The era of AI developers using large datasets of information scraped from the internet and the days of “low-hanging fruit” may be over, Google CEO Sundar Pichai suggested at the New York Times’ annual Dealbook Summit on Wednesday. “In the current generation of LLM models, roughly a few companies have converged at the top, but I think we're all working on our next versions too,” Pichai said. “I think the progress is going to get harder.” Pichai’s comments come as researchers report a slowdown in...

    New York Times on 'Wrong Side of History', OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Says at NYT Event

    OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the lawsuit by the New York Times against the ChatGPT developer for copyright infringement puts the storied publication on the wrong side of history, amid persistent questions about how the media industry should contend with the rise of AI. Altman’s comments came during an interview with the New York Times journalist and host Andrew Ross Sorkin at the newspaper’s annual DealBook Summit in New York City on Wednesday. The lawsuit, filed in December, accuses OpenAI and Mi...

    AI Companions Could Fuel Radicalization Among Lonely Young Men, Ex-Google CEO Warns

    Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt has warned advancing generative AI technologies, such as AI boyfriend and girlfriend companion apps, combined with societal factors like loneliness, could increase the risk of radicalization, particularly among young men.  Schmidt shared his concerns while appearing on NYU Stern Professor Scott Galloway’s The Prof G Show podcast last week. Schmidt explained how many young men today feel increasingly hopeless due to seeing fewer pathways to success compared to women...

  • What Are Coin Mixers and How Do They Work?

    Coin mixers have captured the attention of both the cryptocurrency community and regulators as the battle for privacy ramps up. In 2021, the founder of coin mixer Bitcoin Fog was arrested on charges including money laundering and operating a money transmission business without a license. A year later, the U.S. Treasury Department issued sanctions against Tornado Cash, an Ethereum coin mixing service, effectively banning Americans from using it.

    World’s Fastest Supercomputer Conducting ‘Virtual Manhattan Project’ to Test Nukes

    The cryptocurrency industry has long feared the day when computers will be able to crack blockchains and take down networks like Bitcoin and Ethereum; that day may be closer than they think—but even at today’s supercomputer speeds, only quantum computers could have that potential. Last week, researchers from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory announced that their latest supercomputer, El Capitan, is able to conduct 2.79 quadrillion calculations per second, making it the world’s fastest c...
