The International Federation of Robotics (IFR) released its World Robotics R&D Programs 2025 report that analyzes strategies in Asia, Europe, and the U.S. While economies worldwide are increasingly investing in robotics, each government research and development program follows different strategies. “The 4th edition of the World Robotics R&D Programs covers the latest funding developments, including […]

Aside from making GPUs scarce and expensive (even in the cloud), these rapid changes have suggested many questions in the HPC community. The post Feeding the Virtuous Cycle of Discovery: HPC, Big Data, and AI Acceleration appeared first on HPCwire.

At UC Berkeley, researchers in Sergey Levine’s Robotic AI and Learning Lab eyed a table where a tower of 39 Jenga blocks stood perfectly stacked. Then a white-and-black robot, its single limb doubled over like a hunched-over giraffe, zoomed toward the tower, brandishing a black leather whip. Through what might have seemed to a casual […]

Google expects to bring commercial quantum computing applications to market within five years, according to Hartmut Neven, Google VP of Engineering and longtime leader of its quantum research efforts. Speaking to Reuters on Wednesday, Neven’s projection contrasts with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s recent estimate that practical quantum computing is still two decades away. The post […]

Data centers are significant consumers of global electricity, with their share expected to rise in the coming years. In 2022, data centers consumed approximately 460 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity, accounting for about 2% of global electricity usage. Projections indicate that by 2026, this consumption could increase to between 650 TWh and 1,050 TWh, potentially representing […]

Without the right tools at their disposal, even the brightest scientists may struggle to conduct their experiments effectively. Artificial intelligence could be the tool that makes the scientific research process more efficient. The post AI’s Role in Revolutionizing Scientific Research appeared first on HPCwire.

In the current AI landscape, creative and talkative large language models may be the star of the moment, but a quieter revolution is underway. Quantitative AI, grounded in rigorous scientific modeling and high performance computing, is charting a new frontier. While LLMs are great for human language tasks, quantitative AI is tuned into complex tasks in […]

The gemstone spinel, known for its vibrant colors resembling gems like rubies and sapphires, has now been shown to be capable of storing quantum information, making it a viable material in the field of quantum technology.
