Using a chain of atoms in single file to simulate the event horizon of a black hole, a team of physicists in 2022 observed ...

Forget the Turing test. In Sam Altman's world, the only verdict that matters comes from physicist David Deutsch.

While speaking with David Deutsch, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman proposed a future test for true AGI: if GPT-8 were to solve quantum ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. An abstract illustration of quantum particles entangling. New research aims to unite gravity with ...

On October 1, 2025, Kyushu University will launch the Quantum and Spacetime Research Institute, a new hub dedicated to ...

With the help of magnetic coils and carefully aligned beams, they managed to trap over a million atoms and cool them down to ...

For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and physicist David Deutsch proposed a novel AI benchmark: solving quantum gravity and explaining the ...

Loop quantum gravity (LQG) is a non-perturbative, background-independent approach to quantising spacetime that seeks to merge the principles of quantum mechanics and general relativity. In this ...

Recent theoretical and experimental endeavours in quantum gravity have increasingly focused on the interplay between gravitational interactions and quantum entanglement. This research seeks to ...

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the universe would fall apart if it all remained unchanged. This theory tries to ...

For more than a century, physics has been built on two great theories. Einstein's general relativity explains gravity as the ...
