Using a superconducting quantum computer, physicists created a large and complex version of an odd quantum material that has a repeating structure in time ...

The human brain is unimaginably complex and powerful. In fact, no computer that mankind has built thus far has even come close. That's why scientists have worked tirelessly to create cyborg computers, ...

Researchers have created a “biocomputer” made up of lab-grown human brain tissue and electronic circuits that they say can perform tasks including voice recognition. The idea is to build a “bridge ...

A computer that processes analog data is known as an analog computer. Analog computers store information in physical quantities in a continuous format and use measurements to perform computation.

Canadian company Nord Quantique has developed a novel method to improve quantum error correction (QEC) that will help develop smaller and energy-efficient quantum ...

In the search for less energy-hungry artificial intelligence, some scientists are exploring living computers. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s ...

If you are interested in historical big computers, you probably think of IBM, with maybe a little thought of Sperry Rand or, if you go smaller, HP, DEC, and companies like Data General. But you ...

Imagine you’re a copper miner in southeastern Europe in the year 3900 B.C.E. Day after day you haul copper ore through the mine’s sweltering tunnels. You’ve resigned yourself to the grueling monotony ...

For the first time, a quantum computer has improved its results by repeatedly fixing its own mistakes midcalculation with a technique called quantum error correction ...
