Summary by ChatGTP

Physicists have created a new type of analog quantum computer that can solve problems in quantum physics that regular computers cannot. The scientists from Stanford University and University College Dublin found that the specialized analog computer, which has quantum components, can solve hard physics problems. The architecture of the computer involves metal-semiconductor components in a nanoelectronic circuit. The essential idea of the analog computer is to use hardware to solve problems instead of computer code. The researchers showed that the new design offers a way to scale up the technology to simulate bulk quantum matter.

Can't wait for "journalists" to be replaced by chatGPT

Yahoo News has entered the chat.

Oh automated news items are already quite advanced. News outlets like NYTimes, Associated Press, probably Reuters and some others, have all made large investments in automation for content generation. AP has been doing that for many years, well before Chatgpt. But we should be very very skeptical of further automation of news generation because of the enormous potential for bias, either intentional or not. Imagine if Rupert Murdoch had an algorithm to write every news item with exactly the same slant that he decided when he woke up that morning - basically pairing AI with propaganda and putting huge power in a small number of hands. I am not looking forward to that replacement

I couldn't figure out if this statement meant that they found out how to increase the number of qubit works units ( like the number of cores, scaling out horizontally ) or if they mean that they can scale up the number of qubits that they entangled together ( scaling up the maximum size of the data type of a single instruction )
