Lex Fridman speaks to Max Tegmark about what AI can do in the fields of scientific research.
Max Tegmark tells Lex Fridman what scares him the most about the direction of AI.
Sabine Hossenfelder explores the mathematics behind something that one does not usually associate with mathematics: consciousness.
It may be too late for Philosophy Friday, but physicist asks Sabine Hossenfelder whether or not time is real.
Sabine Hossenfelder covers the latest news in warp drive development.
Yes, you read that right.
What is a warp drive? Are they scientifically possible? How does the Alcubierre drive work?
Anton Petrov examines the new possibilities that a the recent discovery of a room temperature superconductor opens up.
Quantum tunneling happens when a particle seemingly teleports across a barrier. But despite how instantaneous this event sounds, recent research suggests that it doesn’t happen nearly as fast as you might think.
SciShow explains.
Sabine Hossenfelder explains atomic energy levels and their role in quantum mechanics.
Watching these videos is all part of my plan to understand the fundamental forces behind quantum computing.
Quantum computers can solve problems in seconds that would take “ordinary” computers millennia, but their sensitivity to interference is major engineering obstacle.
Now, researchers claim they’ve created a component that drastically cuts down on error-inducing noise.
Seeker explains how graphene could make a big difference.
Superconducting materials can do amazing things that appear to defy the laws of physics, but their major drawback is that superconducting properties don’t appear unless a material is cooled to near absolute zero.
Superconductors that would work at (or near) room temperatures would, without exaggeration, would change the world and would have massive implications for quantum computing.
Liv Boeree shares this exclusive behind-the-scenes interview with the scientists who just unearthed one of the holy grails of physics: a room-temperature superconductor!
Their discovered material — carbonaceous sulfur hydride — shows superconductivity at 15 degrees Celsius, a temperature FAR above all previous records. It takes us a huge step closer to the long-sought goal of creating electrical systems with perfect efficiency, which would transform the world’s energy grids, computation and transportation systems entirely.
