High-Speed Internet, Quantum Style. It’s Possible. Once thought to be an unlikely possibility, the high-speed quantum internet is looking to be more of a reality. With the introduction of new materials, rapid production of photons capable of transmitting quantum information has researchers at the University of Moscow excited. Utilizing silicon carbide, the team has created […]
Daimler Positioning Itself With Google
Daimler Positioning Itself With Google Daimler’s claim is in aiding the mobility of human-kind some 132 years ago with the automobile. As the world witnesses rapid changes due to sweeping advances in technology, “individual mobility” trucks right along with those changes. Daimler is seeking to utilize Google’s quantum computing prowess for advancing the sector further. […]
Quantum Seating for 10, Please
Quantum Seating for 10, Please Theoretical Physicist Joerg Esser delves into machine learning, quantum computing, and seating 10 people to a dinner table. Though quantum computing for the masses is relatively a long-way off, a more near-term solution may be in the combination of machine learning, classical computing, and the nascent quantum computing systems in […]
