Artificial intelligence and machine learning could become dramatically more efficient, thanks to a new type of computer ...

“Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age” is the greatest doc I’ve seen since the BBC’s sensational “Blue Planet 2,” which first hit ...

James Cameron is not mincing words about generative AI. The filmmaker who helped define modern visual effects is now warning ...

For more than ten years, independent filmmakers were told that visual effects would make their films look as good as The post Why Practical Effects Are Making a Major Comeback in Independent Cinema ...

Analogue computers that rapidly solve a key type of equation used in training artificial intelligence models could offer a potential solution to the growing energy consumption in data centres caused ...

Languages evolve over time. New words are added to our collective lexicon — some of which are just corruptions of existing words –- and old words sometimes receive new definitions. Often, these words ...

Although computers are overwhelmingly digital today, there’s a good point to be made that analog computers are the more efficient approach for specific applications. The authors behind a recent paper ...

A new technical paper titled “Analog optical computer for AI inference and combinatorial optimization” was published by researchers at Microsoft Research, Barclays and University of Cambridge.

Analog computing stands apart from digital systems in some interesting ways. Instead of crunching numbers through step-by-step algorithms and binary logic, analog computers model problems by ...

Recent progress in both analog and digital quantum simulations heralds a future in which quantum computers could simulate — and thereby illuminate — physical phenomena that are far too complex for ...
