World Quantum Readiness Day, observed this year on Sept. 17, is meant to raise awareness of that risk and encourage ...

A quantum chemistry algorithm designed for fault-tolerant quantum hardware has been run entirely on a standard commodity server — no quantum computer, no supercomputing cluster — and has produced ...

For years, social media giants controlled what users saw in their feeds. While people could follow accounts, like posts or hide content they didn’t enjoy, recommendation algorithms controlled what was ...

It's a simple word that has developed a sinister connotation: algorithm. For many of us, algorithms help determine what we watch, read and listen to — in the process, confirming our tastes and biases, ...

It’s a weird time to be studying computer science. Recent grads have a higher unemployment rate than those in just about every other major—yes, even philosophy. The internet is littered with rants ...

As a cornerstone of automated reasoning, equational reasoning finds equivalences between symbolic expressions and fuels advances across scientific disciplines. Yet, its potential remains limited by ...

A new quantum-inspired algorithm has cracked a problem so massive that conventional supercomputers struggle to even approach it. Researchers used the method to simulate extraordinarily complex quantum ...

With growing focus on the existential threat quantum computing poses to some of the most crucial and widely used forms of encryption, cryptography engineer Filippo Valsorda wants to make one thing ...

Update 4/19/26: Added additional information from Vercel that was disclosed after publishing. Cloud development platform Vercel has disclosed a security incident after threat actors claimed to have ...

Russell has a PhD in the history of medicine, violence, and colonialism. His research has explored topics including ethics, science governance, and medical involvement in violent contexts. Russell has ...

While the billion-dollar question is about when quantum computing will become commercially viable, one of the problems being tackled at the moment is how to make the ...
