The Verge argues that researchers "have made genuine progress in quantum computing — it's just been largely incremental and too esoteric to immediately capture the public's imagination."
And there are predictions that quantum computers will finally do something useful as soon as 2028:
The drama can overshadow the real progress in quantum computing...
Researchers have improved the qubits themselves, so they hold onto information longer. When they hold onto information longer, you can fit in more operatio

Уверен, что многие, кто когда-либо играл в «Dark Messiah of Might and Magic», находятся в поиске чего-то похожего. Но, к сожалению, за двадцать (!) лет мы так и не получили игры, которая смогла бы приблизиться к «Тёмному Мессии». Что же в нём было такого особенного, и почему никто до сих пор не сумел повторить простую, на первый взгляд, формулу? Читать далее Read more ›

Привет! Началось всё с дурацкого вопроса. Я который месяц живу в Claude Code — ставлю задачи, ругаюсь, прошу переделать, снова ругаюсь. И тут до меня дошло: каждая моя реплика лежит на диске. Вообще каждая. Каждое «сделай», каждое «проверь», каждый капс в три часа ночи — всё это тихо копится в JSONL‑файлах в домашней папке. У меня таких логов набралось на 200 тысяч слов за полтора месяца. Это, на минуточку, две... Read more ›

When Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D., it buried hundreds of papyrus scrolls. They were rediscovered in the mid-1700s, remembers Smithsonian magazine, "the only surviving collection of its kind from the Greco-Roman world..." "But when scholars tried to unroll them, the carbonized manuscripts crumbled to dust." Every generation that followed faced the same dilemma: They could wait for technology to advance, abandoning hope of reading the ancient texts in their... Read more ›

Max Planck won 1918's Nobel Prize for physics. Yet two of his papers were retracted — a move now being criticized by Yves Gingras, a historian of physics at the University of Quebec and Mahdi Khelfaoui, a fellow historian of science at UQ Trois-Rivières. Science reports: The papers, both quietly retracted in 2011, originally appeared in the early 1940s in Naturwissenschaften, a German journal now owned by publishing giant Springer... Read more ›

There's a deadly, record-breaking heat wave spreading east across Europe, reports the Washington Post — and it's even worse than a dire earlier forecast: The forecast was recorded in 2014 as part of a campaign coordinated by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) that invited about 60 presenters worldwide to imagine a weather report from the year 2050. In one clip, Ãvelyne Dhéliat from French television network TF1 presented a hypothetical... Read more ›

Slashdot reader BrianFagioli writes: Florida International University researchers have developed a technique called JaiLIP (Jailbreaking with Loss-guided Image Perturbation) that uses subtle image modifications to bypass AI safety guardrails. Unlike traditional jailbreaks that rely on carefully crafted prompts, the attack works through images that appear normal to human viewers. The researchers tested the technique against BLIP-2, a multimodal AI model, and found that manipulated images significantly increa Read more ›

"Enterprises may soon be paying as much for their developers' AI token usage as they do for their salaries," writes InfoWorld: According to Gartner, these costs will meet, or even exceed, the typical software engineer's monthly salary within the next two years. This is not only because developers are increasingly adopting generative AI and agentic tools, it reflects a trend toward consumption-based licensing models as vendors balance infrastructure investments with...
