Imagine a world where light acts like tiny particles one moment and a flowing wave the next. This isn’t science fiction—it’s the foundation of modern science. At the heart of this mystery lies wave-particle duality, a concept that reshaped our understanding of the universe. In 1905, Albert Einstein proposed that light exists as discrete packets … Read more
Imagine solving complex problems in minutes that would take today’s fastest supercomputers thousands of years. This is the promise of a new tech revolution happening in labs around the world. Unlike traditional computers, which use binary bits (0s and 1s), the new ones use qubits that can be in many states at once. This change … Read more
What if the natural world has been quietly using subatomic magic long before we discovered it? Scientists are finding out that living organisms might use quantum tricks like entanglement and superposition. These ideas are usually linked to high-tech labs, not nature. For example, plants seem to transfer energy between molecules with near-perfect efficiency. This process … Read more
Physics has always been about making new discoveries. From Newton’s apples to Einstein’s spacetime, each breakthrough changed how we see the world. Now, scientists are trying to figure out how to make gravity work with tiny particles. For years, two theories were the top dogs. Relativity explained big things like planets and black holes. Quantum … Read more
What if your thoughts could shape reality? This idea is at the core of a big mystery in quantum physics. Scientists have long wondered if our observation can change how particles act. This is known as wave function collapse. In 2003, researcher Dick Bierman made a big splash. His EEG study found strange brain patterns … Read more
Imagine two particles separated by galaxies, yet bound by an invisible thread. This isn’t sci-fi—it’s quantum entanglement, nature’s most peculiar love story. Entangled particles mirror each other’s states instantly, like soulmates sharing emotions across continents. Einstein famously called it “spooky action at a distance.” But physicist Samuel Vermeulen sees it differently. His groundbreaking thesis frames … Read more
In 1801, Thomas Young shot a beam of light through two tiny slits. He accidentally uncovered a mystery that puzzles scientists to this day. His simple setup showed light creating interference patterns, like waves in a pond. This proved light wasn’t just particles, as Newton thought. But the story didn’t end there. Fast-forward to 2020: … Read more
Imagine your toy box holds a spinning top that can be two colors at once or appear in two places simultaneously. That’s how tiny particles behave in the world of quantum physics—except instead of toys, we’re talking about electrons and light. While this might sound like magic, it’s actually the rules of nature at the … Read more
AGI is a big leap from narrow AI, which only does one thing. In 2020, 72 projects were working on AGI in 37 countries1. Experts say AGI can do everything from simple tasks like a voice assistant to complex problems. Yet, 75% of people worry about AI being used in bad ways. This shows how … Read more
Quantum computing is changing the game for artificial intelligence. IBM’s Deep Blue beat Garry Kasparov, showing code can solve problems better than humans in specific areas. This victory made people realize AI’s power, leading to new uses in gaming and healthcare. Today, many AI systems use deep neural networks, like CNNs. These networks are great … Read more
