AI optimists envision a future where artificial general intelligence (AGI) surpasses human intelligence, but the path remains ...

Researchers from the University of Bristol have discovered that super-powerful quantum computers, which scientists and engineers across the world are racing to build, need to be even more powerful ...

It's day two at the Singularity Summit 2007 in San Francisco at the Palace of Fine Arts. Today's topics include the risks of artificial general intelligence (AGI) and what preparations are necessary ...

One of the most well-established and disruptive uses for a future quantum computer is the ability to crack encryption. A new algorithm could significantly lower the barrier to achieving this. Despite ...

1:08-1:12 The unknown performance of the Dwave System quantum computer. Adiabiatic quantum computers are more like the large hadron collider than a classical computer. 1:13-1:17 Why would someone ...

Classical computers (like the one you may be reading this on) calculate using bits, or binary digits, which can have only one of two values, either 1 or 0. Quantum computers, however, calculate using ...
