Intel unveils largest-ever AI 'neuromorphic computer' that mimics the human brain
Intel's Hala Point neuromorphic computer is powered by more than 1,000 new AI chips and performs 50 times faster than equivalent conventional computing systems.
Why quantum computing at 1 degree above absolute zero is such a big deal
Operating at even marginally warmer temperatures means quantum computers could be much easier to operate — and much more widely available.
New York college becomes 1st university with on-campus IBM quantum computer that is 'scientifically useful'
IBM's latest System One quantum computer is based at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) and is the 1st IBM quantum machine to be installed at a university campus in the U.S.
Error-corrected qubits 800 times more reliable after breakthrough, paving the way for 'next level' of quantum computing
Scientists used a technique called 'active syndrome extraction' to build four logical qubits from 30 physical ones and run 14,000 experiments without detecting a single error.
What is quantum computing?
Reference Quantum computing opens the door to ultra-powerful machines that can perform calculations that would take supercomputers millions of years.
Computing 'paradigm shift' could see phones and laptops run twice as fast — without replacing a single component
By letting different processing units — like GPUs, NPUs and hardware accelerators — work in parallel, rather than in sequence, systems can be up to twice as fast and consume 50% less energy.
World's largest computer chip WSE-3 will power massive AI supercomputer 8 times faster than the current record-holder
Cerebras' Wafer Scale Engine 3 (WSE-3) chip contains four trillion transistors and will power the 8-exaFLOP Condor Galaxy 3 supercomputer one day.
New DNA-infused computer chip can perform calculations and make future AI models far more efficient
The new processor stores data in modified DNA molecules and uses microfluidic channels to perform basic computations.
Qubits are notoriously prone to failure — but building them from a single laser pulse may change this
Qubits are normally made from superconducting metals and need to be cooled to near absolute zero to avoid collapsing. But scientists just built an error-free "logical qubit" from a single laser pulse — and it works at room temperature.
