Google to Make Quantum Migration by 2029

admin

Google has set a 2029 deadline for its post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration, warning that “quantum frontiers” could be closer than they appear. On Wednesday, Google said rapid progress in quantum computing hardware and quantum error correction, along with updated estimates of how quickly a quantum machine could break today’s encryption standards, has heightened the urgency to act sooner rather than later. “Quantum computers will pose a significant threat to current cryptographic standards, and specifically to encryption and digital signatures,” Google said, while also noting that PQC migration is needed for…

Jake Loosararian: Robotics must prioritize data collection for efficiency, the impact of Nvidia’s dominance on hardware diversity, and the crucial role of determinism in future advancements

admin

Key takeaways Robotics should prioritize data collection to optimize performance and decision-making. Industries like energy and defense are increasingly leveraging robotics for operational efficiency. The future of robotics is promising, but safety and reliability through determinism are crucial. Consolidation around Nvidia limits hardware diversity, impacting AI development. Robotics can enhance efficiency in industries with high energy costs and frequent shutdowns. GPUs have become vital for scaling AI applications, especially in chat-based models. Fragmentation in hardware compatibility is due to proprietary software systems. CUDA is outdated for modern systems, indicating a…
