If true (and it’s a pretty big “if”), Vopson’s new gravitational study would shake the foundations of the currently accepted view of the universe. In his paper, Vopson writes that his new work could ...

The simulation hypothesis—the idea that our universe might be an artificial construct running on some advanced alien computer ...

For years, the idea that reality might be a sophisticated computer program has drifted from late-night dorm debates into mainstream culture and serious philosophy. Now a new wave of theoretical work ...

A team of physicists claims to have killed the simulation hypothesis with math. According to Science Daily, researchers led ...

Physicist Mir Faizal, Adjunct Professor with UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, was not out to shatter the dreams of science fiction enthusiasts when he began to study the limits of ...

The exploration of quantum information challenges objective reality, positing the universe as a hologram is explored through this eBook ...

Rapid advances in the kind of problems that quantum computers can tackle suggest that they are closer than ever to becoming ...

Since classical computers face limitations while modelling on how many particles interact, Quantum computers are just what is needed to move physics beyond ...

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

I’ve started making my way (skeptically) through Ray Kurzweil’s How to Create a Mind, and at the recommendation of a friend, I’ve also started keeping tabs on KurzweilAI, a Kurzweil-blessed site ...
