It's an aggressive move that'll effectively force operators of critical French infrastructure to move away from traditional cryptographic systems.

That is exactly what is happening to the RPG Maker forums, and people are rightfully angry about it. Gotcha Gotcha Games, the ...

Kharizmi helped solidify the concept of algorithms in mathematics and popularized algebra and the use of the zero.

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

OpenAI and Google DeepMind demonstrated that their foundation models could outperform human coders — and win — showing that large language models (LLMs) can solve complex, previously unsolved ...

Google’s AI R&D lab DeepMind says it has developed a new AI system to tackle problems with “machine-gradable” solutions. In experiments, the system, called AlphaEvolve, could help optimize some of the ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Quantum computers could soon be able to solve genuinely useful mathematical problems faster than classical computers, claims quantum computing firm Quantinuum. It would be the first example of these ...

Right now, quantum computers are small and error-prone compared to where they’ll likely be in a few years. Even within those limitations, however, there have been regular claims that the hardware can ...
