ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Google DeepMind’s New AI Systems Can Now Solve Complex Math ProblemsRhiannon Williams | MIT Technology Review“AI models can easily generate essays and other types of text. However, they’re nowhere near as good at solving math problems, which tend to involve logical reasoning—something that’s beyond the capabilities of most current AI systems. But that may finally be changing. Google DeepMind says it has trained two specialized AI systems to solve complex math problems involving advanced reasoning.”

COMPUTING

This Startup Is Building the Country’s Most Powerful Quantum Computer on Chicago’s South SideAdam Bluestein | Fast Company“PsiQuantum’s approach is radically different from that of its competitors. It’s relying on cutting-edge ‘silicon photonics’ to manipulate single particles of light for computation. And instead of taking an incremental approach to building a supercomputer, it’s focused entirely on coming out of the gate with a full-blown, ‘fault tolerant’ system that will be far larger than any quantum computer built …
