Researchers at Google have used their Willow quantum computer to demonstrate that "quantum contextuality" may be a crucial ...

Consciousness may emerge not from code, but from the way living brains physically compute.

A new theoretical framework argues that the long-standing split between computational functionalism and biological naturalism misses how real brains actually compute.

The familiar fight between “mind as software” and “mind as biology” may be a false choice. This work proposes biological computationalism: the idea that brains compute, but not in the abstract, symbol ...

Rice quantum computing researchers have introduced a novel algorithm that earned the team a place in the global XPRIZE Quantum Applications competition.

Research reveals why AI systems can't become conscious—and what radically different computing substrates would be needed to ...

Somewhere at the edge of mathematics lurks a number so large that it breaks the very foundations of our understanding - and ...

Imaging technology has transformed how we observe the universe—from mapping distant galaxies with radio telescope arrays to ...

Computers found what human experts missed: a divide between aging biology research and patient care that decades of funding ...

Quantum computing is a promising field with massive long-term potential, but it is still in its early commercialization phase ...
