Our TPUs are headed to space!  Inspired by our history of moonshots, from quantum computing to autonomous driving, Project Suncatcher is exploring how we could one day build scalable ML compute systems in space, harnessing more of the sun’s power (which emits more power than 100

The U.S. government has an essential role to play in making sure the United States and its allies lead the world in quantum computing—and that this technology delivers concrete benefits for taxpayers. That’s why PsiQuantum is proud to participate in the Q-NEXT center, led by

There’s nothing inherently expensive about nuclear, in fact it’s the opposite. If a nation WANTS to build low cost nuclear, it can. Comes down to building up the muscle and right-sizing regulations. The capital will follow.

Demis Hassabis: calling today's chatbots “PhD intelligences” is nonsense. They can dazzle at a PhD level one moment and fail high school math the next. True AGI won't make trivial mistakes. It will reason, adapt, and learn continuously. We're still 5–10 years away.

The dilution refrigerator or “chandelier” is a beloved icon of quantum computing, but it does not have enough capacity to be practical as we scale up.​ We ditched the chandelier and built a simpler, dramatically more powerful form factor, capable of cooling hundreds of quantum

I am (slowly) re-reading the Tolkien legendarium (of which Lord of the Rings is a small part). The whole body of work is so incredible and there's nothing else like it... it dilutes other worlds of fiction. Wait - your story doesn't have a comprehensive history/mythology spanning

🫡 3. Prioritize conscience. Studying and translating thinkers from Julius Caesar to Seneca, my father saw that morals outlast talent. Moral compass, unlike intelligence or creativity, is the ultimate human quality that will not lose value even in the age of AI.

Anybody who looks at the numbers sees that we've never had deficits remotely like this, or the prospect of debts remotely like this, at a moment when the economy was strong and we were at peace in our history. This is a risk that we don't need to run and for what, to give a
