“We can’t actually build brains,” University of Sussex mathematical physics professor Thomas Nowotny told New Scientist.

The Jan. 15 webinar is designed for dairy producers and others to learn about new efforts to keep cows healthy, said presenter Bennie Osburn, WIFSS director of Outreach and Training and emeritus dean ...

Head-on (left) and side-view (right) snapshots of a galactic disk of gas. These snapshots of gas distribution after a supernova explosion were generated by the deep learning surrogate model.

Europe’s first exascale supercomputer has just smashed a global quantum benchmark, simulating a full 50-qubit universal quantum computer for the first time. The feat pushes classical computing to its ...

A research team at the Jülich Supercomputing Center, together with experts from NVIDIA, has set a new record in quantum simulation: for the first time, a universal quantum computer with 50 qubits has ...

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

The idea that we’re living inside a simulation, as popularized by “The Matrix” franchise, has piqued the interest of scientists for decades. In 2003, philosopher Nick Bostrom proposed in a highly ...

For decades, philosophers, technologists, and even billionaires like Elon Musk have toyed with the idea that our universe might be a highly sophisticated computer simulation. The idea represents one ...

Researchers at the quantum computing firm Quantinuum used a new Helios-1 quantum computer to simulate a mathematical model that has long been used to study superconductivity. These simulations are not ...

Spoiler: You are not living in a simulation. Advanced simulations have been the subject of fiction from The Matrix to the season two episode of The Twilight Zone (2019), “Downtime.” As our real-world ...

The Week 9 NFL schedule features a compelling slate of matchups across the league, highlighted by several key games that could help shape the NFL playoff picture. The Indianapolis Colts are 3.5-point ...

Researchers have mathematically proven that the universe cannot be a computer simulation. Reality, they argue, is rooted in a “non-algorithmic understanding” that no algorithm could ever replicate.
