Self-Correcting Quantum Computers Closer to Reality

Quantum computers promise speeds and efficiencies that are higher than even the most powerful supercomputers. This technology hasn’t seen much commercialization or scaling up, largely due to its difficulty in error correction. Scientists have come up with a technique that could help solve this issue.

In a world that is increasingly digital, lag can be a major annoyance. Disruptions caused by lag are a pain for anyone, whether it’s an avid video gamer battling against opponents in a virtual world, or a person working with colleagues from around the world. But researchers at MIT and Stanford have developed a new method to reduce the lag and increase productivity.

AI Finds Hidden Patterns in Nature

Researchers are using data from thousands of bird sightings to discover hidden patterns in ecological communities. This research could be the first step in creating artificial intelligence that could predict habitat loss and other environmental issues. The technology will also enable scientists to better understand the role of biodiversity of species in maintaining ecosystems. This is an important part of the fight against the effects of climate change and loss in biodiversity. The discovery could lead to more sustainable land-use practices, which reduce find out the necessity for logging or agriculture.
