The simulation hypothesis—the idea that our universe might be an artificial construct running on some advanced alien computer ...

Regardless of the answers, the era of entanglement under infinite book‐keeping is giving way to an era of entanglement under limited books, limited clocks and limited gates. And in this more realistic ...

Alan Turing’s work laid the foundation for modern artificial intelligence, particularly through his concept of the Turing Test, which evaluates a machine’s ability to exhibit human-like behaviour.

Society tells children that if someone has hurt them, they should tell a trusted adult. But the reality is often not that simple. In 34% of child sexual abuse cases reported to law enforcement, the ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Imagine a town with two widget merchants. Customers prefer cheaper widgets, so the merchants must compete to set the lowest price.

All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in general, research mathematicians don’t need to think about it ...

"We have demonstrated that it is impossible to describe all aspects of physical reality using a computational theory of quantum gravity," says Dr. Faizal. "Therefore, no physically complete and ...

From powering search engines to securing data and optimizing networks, algorithms underpin nearly every aspect of modern technology. Understanding how efficiently they can solve problems — and where ...

As companies like Amazon and Microsoft lay off workers and embrace A.I. coding tools, computer science graduates say they’re struggling to land tech jobs. Manasi Mishra recently graduated from Purdue ...

Abstract: The aim of this study is to observe the impact of intelligent systems on societal well-being and to uncover the effects of developments in computability on artificial intelligence in order ...
