jilibet online casino login register Google on Monday showed off a new quantum computing chip that it said was a major breakthrough that could bring practical quantum computing closer to reality. A custom chip called "Willow" does in minutes what it would take leading supercomputers 10 septillion years to complete, according to Google Quantum AI founder Hartmut Neven. "Written out, there is a 1 with 25 zeros," Neven said of the time span while briefing journalists. "A mind-boggling number." Neven's team of about 300 people at Google is on a mission to build quantum computing capable of handling otherwise unsolvable problems like safe fusion power and stopping climate change. "We see Willow as an important step in our journey to build a useful quantum computer with practical applications in areas like drug discovery, fusion energy, battery design and more," said Google CEO Sundar Pichai on X. A quantum computer that can tackle these challenges is still years away, but Willow marks a significant step in that direction, according to Neven and members of his team. While still in its early stages, scientists believe that superfast quantum computing will eventually be able to power innovation in a range of fields. Quantum research is seen as a critical field and both the United States and China have been investing heavily in the area, while Washington has also placed restrictions on the export of the sensitive technology. Olivier Ezratty, an independent expert in quantum technologies, told AFP in October that private and public investment in the field has totaled around $20 billion worldwide over the past five years. Regular computers function in binary fashion: they carry out tasks using tiny fragments of data known as bits that are only ever either expressed as 1 or 0. But fragments of data on a quantum computer, known as qubits, can be both 1 and 0 at the same time -- allowing them to crunch an enormous number of potential outcomes simultaneously. Crucially, Google's chip demonstrated the ability to reduce computational errors exponentially as it scales up -- a feat that has eluded researchers for nearly 30 years. The breakthrough in error correction, published in leading science journal Nature, showed that adding more qubits to the system actually reduced errors rather than increasing them -- a fundamental requirement for building practical quantum computers. Error correction is the "end game" in quantum computing and Google is "confidently progressing" along the path, according to Google director of quantum hardware Julian Kelly. gc/arp/bjtIn my younger days as a newspaper reporter covering Georgia politics, politicians and journalists alike would wake up on Election Day and check the weather. Where was it raining? And was it hard enough or long enough to impact the vote? And who might it help or hurt? Back then, however, nobody ever woke up and worried about whether a hurricane might have an impact on an election. Javascript is required for you to be able to read premium content.

Federal agencies have submitted their complete inventories of artificial intelligence use cases to the White House to ensure trustworthy and transparent deployment. Following the recent Monday deadline to report such programs, 37 agencies submitted to the White House Office of Management and Budget, fulfilling the provision in President Joe Biden’s October 2023 that asks agencies to provide details about how AI is impacting their business operations and about the risk mitigation efforts used to ensure that such systems are deployed safely. Overall, the top three categories for AI use cases in federal operations were: mission-enabling and operations support, health and medical system support and government service operationalization. Of the total 1,757 use cases reported, 227 of these were identified as civil rights or safety impacting. The Department of Health and Human Services leads agencies in total use cases deployed, with 271 active AI use cases, 4 of them being rights-impacting. Following HHS, the Department of Veterans Affairs reported 229 active AI use cases, with 145 of them classified as rights-impacting at various levels. The Department of Homeland Security and the Department of the Interior followed just behind, reporting 183 and 180 active AI use cases, respectively. Though the updated transparency is seen as a positive development in ongoing AI policy, analysts noted inconsistencies in how agencies document their AI usage. “Agencies’ updated AI use case inventories are a reflection of both increased AI usage across the federal government as well as improved documentation of agencies’ existing use cases. Some updated inventories contain significantly more information than years passed [sic], marking important progress,” Quinn Anex-Ries, a senior policy analyst at the Center for Democracy & Technology told in an email. “However, there are still significant inconsistencies in documentation practices between agencies and limited information about how agencies are evaluating the risk level of AI systems," she added. "Agencies now have the chance to learn from one another and the public about how these inventories can be improved upon in the future.”

Arkansas WR Andrew Armstrong declares for NFL draft, skipping bowlTechnology group Wärtsilä’s focus on supporting the marine industry’s efforts to decarbonise operations continues to drive concrete steps forward. The latest order is to supply a complete propulsion package for a 38,000 DWT methanol-ready cement carrier vessel. When built, this will be the world’s largest vessel of its type, and the first with a methanol-ready notation. The order has been placed by NovaAlgoma, a joint venture between the Italian Swiss-based, Nova Marine Group and the Canadian Algoma Central Corporation. The ship is being built at the Zhejiang Xinle Shipbuilding Co.,Ltd, and is expected to be launched in late 2026. The order was booked by Wärtsilä in Q4 2024. “This highly valuable new entry demonstrates the Group’s fleet development strategy and aims to address the significant increase in cement demand,” says Vincenzo Romeo, CEO of Nova Marine Group. “This will be the largest and most eco-friendly cement carrier ever built and is a tangible sign of our strong efforts towards a green fleet. Having Wärtsilä as the technology and solution provider supports our fleet’s effective transition towards decarbonisation.” The Wärtsilä scope of supply includes two Wärtsilä 32 engines, one Wärtsilä 25 auxiliary engine, two gearboxes, two controllable pitch propellers, one tunnel thruster, three selective catalytic reduction (SCR) exhaust after-treatment systems, the propulsion control system, two shaft generators (PTO/PTI) and engine accessory items. The equipment is scheduled for delivery commencing in November 2025. Wärtsilä will supply a complete propulsion package for a 38,000 DWT methanol-ready cement carrier vessel owned by NovaAlgoma © Wärtsilä Corporation “Nova and Wärtsilä share a joint commitment to decarbonise shipping operations within the maritime industry,” comments Roger Holm, President of Wärtsilä Marine & Executive Vice President at Wärtsilä Corporation. “With this integrated package we are taking a holistic approach to the operation of this innovative vessel. This will allow us to support Nova with its sustainability goals around minimising emissions and ensuring the most efficient energy utilisation during operations.” The Wärtsilä 32 engine is the result of the company’s long-established expertise. It is designed for efficient and easy maintenance in combination with long maintenance-free operating periods. It’s excellent fuel flexibility means it can easily be upgraded to operate with methanol. The Wärtsilä 25 engine’s modularity then offers maximised flexibility, while the engine’s efficiency and fuel economy deliver minimised emissions. In addition, Wärtsilä’s propulsion solutions deliver high efficiency, helping vessels to achieve their compliance targets. This is achieved in combination with a gearbox that reduces propeller speed meaning that a larger propeller diameter is utilised to maximise propulsive efficiency. Source: Wärtsilä
