🚨 THE AGE OF LIGHT: SCIENTISTS FIND THE MISSING MATERIAL FOR PHOTONIC COMPUTERS Electricity had a good run. The future belongs to light. Researchers at NYU’s Martiniani Lab just discovered a new material – they call it a “gyromorph” – that co  XView Full Coverage on Google News Source link

“Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links.” Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Quantum computers can outperform even the best classical supercomputers thanks to quantum entanglement and superposition, but even they can’t solve some problems. A new preprint study shows how quantum computers can’t solve a “nightmare” problem of …

Fungal networks could one day replace the tiny metal components that process and store computer data, according to new research. Mushrooms are known for their toughness and unusual biological properties, qualities that make them attractive for bioelectronics. This emerging field blends biology and technology to design innovative, sustainable materials for future computing systems. Turning Mushrooms Into Living Memory Devices Researchers …

Rigetti Computing tanks amid souring retail sentiment, bearish options bets Rigetti Computing is getting taken to the woodshed on Wednesday amid souring retail trader sentiment and options bets on near-term downside. In particular, one post on Reddit’s wallstreetbets forum from user bespoketrancheop, which shows the Google Street view (circa March 2025) of Rigetti’s listed headquarters, is generating a lot of …

The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis for their work on quantum mechanics that is paving the way for a new generation of very powerful computers. “There is no advanced technology used today that does not rely on quantum mechanics, including mobile phones, cameras… and fibre optic cables,” said …

In the lab, FinalSpark’s cellular biologist Dr Flora Brozzi handed me a dish containing several small white orbs. Each little sphere is essentially a tiny, lab-grown mini-brain, made out of living stem cells which have been cultured to become clusters of neurons and supporting cells – these are the “organoids”. They are nowhere near the complexity of a human brain, …

Zoe KleinmanTechnology editor BBC The building blocks for a biocomputer growing in a lab It may have its roots in science fiction, but a small number of researchers are making real progress trying to create computers out of living cells. Welcome to the weird world of biocomputing. Among those leading the way are a group of scientists in Switzerland, who …

Quantum entanglement — once dismissed by Albert Einstein as “spooky action at a distance” — has long captured the public imagination and puzzled even seasoned scientists. But for today’s quantum practitioners, the reality is rather more mundane: entanglement is a kind of connection between particles that is the quintessential feature of quantum computers. Though these devices are still in their …
