Artificial intelligence, once the realm of science fiction, claimed its place at the pinnacle of scientific achievement Monday in Sweden. In a historic ceremony at Stockholm’s iconic Konserthuset, John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton received the Nobel Prize in Physics for their pioneering work on neural networks — systems that mimic the brain’s architecture and form

A robot commonly used and manually manipulated by surgeons for routine operations can now autonomously perform key surgical tasks as precisely as humans. Researchers at Johns Hopkins and Stanford Universities, revealed they have integrated a vision-language model (VLM)—trained on hours of surgical videos—with the widely-used da Vinci robotic surgical system. Once connected with the VLM…

Quantum computing has the potential to transform industries ranging from drug discovery to logistics, but a huge barrier standing between today’s quantum devices and useful applications is noise. These disturbances, introduced by environmental interactions and imperfect hardware, mean that today’s qubits can only perform hundreds of operations before quantum computations irretrievably deteriorate.  Though seemingly inevitable,

Infleqtion, a world leader in neutral atom quantum computing, used the NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform to first simulate, and then orchestrate the first-ever demonstration of a material science experiment on logical qubits, on their Sqale physical quantum processing unit (QPU). Qubits, the basic units of information in quantum computing, are prone to errors, and far too unreliable to make meaningful…

Southeast Asia is embracing sovereign AI. The prime ministers of Thailand and Vietnam this week met with NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang to discuss initiatives that will accelerate AI innovation in their countries. During his visit to the region, Huang also joined Bangkok-based cloud infrastructure company SIAM.AI Cloud onstage for a fireside chat on
