Computer scientists have discovered a new way to multiply large matrices faster by eliminating a previously unknown inefficiency, leading to the largest improvement in matrix multiplication efficiency ...

Computer scientists are a demanding bunch. For them, it’s not enough to get the right answer to a problem — the goal, almost always, is to get the answer as efficiently as possible. Take the act of ...

With AlphaTensor, DeepMind Technologies has presented an AI system that is supposed to independently find novel, efficient and provably correct algorithms for complex mathematical tasks. AlphaTensor ...

Photonic innovation: researchers in the US have created an optical metamaterial that can perform vector–matrix multiplication. (Courtesy: iStock/Henrik5000) A new silicon photonics platform that can ...

There has been an ever-growing demand for artificial intelligence and fifth-generation communications globally, resulting in very large computing power and memory requirements. The slowing down or ...

I have the sense that some perspective is missing here. People should remember that every Boomer didn't spring wholly evil from the mind of a mid-1940's supervillain. The father figures of the Boomers ...
