Does this mean the coin flipping guys get to publish a paper too?

(Sidenote: I am unironically a big fan of trickshot videos. The joy in their faces when they finally get it is fantastic!)

I think a way to fight blog posts is to preach to non-experts to

1. Find the link to the scientific paper in the blog post
2. Upload just the paper (not blog post or any other media) into NotebookLM
3. Ask NotebookLM your questions

It's not perfect but (so far) it's pretty decent!

Very nice interview with Prof. Prabha Mandayam where she shares with us some fascinating life experiences and insights, like how she got into quantum, what she enjoys most about her job, recent QEC breakthroughs, and more! Very fun, informal and a relaxing listen :)

Thanks Nick, appreciate the shout ๐Ÿ™‚ we're hoping it can entice more people into digging deeper into how to move forward in understanding which (parts of) problems in healthcare/lifesciences quantum algorithms could be have a potential to help out in!

So your conclusion is that "this suggests that the firewall paradox may be a symptom of the same fundamental issue that leads to the extended Wigner's friend paradox" is bullshit? Or am I misunderstanding?

It's similar on my timeline (not with Tesla specifically but a lot of Trump related posts). My solution is to just stick to the "Following" tab and ignore the "Discover" tab. Unfortunately I only discover new accounts when people I know repost them, so exploration is slow but I'm OK with it for now

Genuine question: what makes this paper bullshit? You often times point to a quote or give like a two-word context so happy to get that from you this time as well (I have no opinion or stake in this paper, just curious)

(4/8) ๐Ÿ”ย Understanding Our Approach

What is the challenge?

In multiple instance learning (MIL), individual data points (e.g., single cells) often lack labels, but โ€œbag-levelโ€ labels (e.g., entire blood samples) are more accessible.

(3/8) - More efficiency: We reduced the number of trained parameters by a factor of 5.

- Future potential: We outline a possible pathway for leveraging quantum algorithms to further enhance MIL-based AI models.

Key results:

Same sentiment here! Really enjoyed this video and as someone in the field of quantum computing but a complete non-expert in Majorana qubits, I really appreciated the time and effort taken by @spinespresso.bsky.social and @vincentmourik.bsky.social to break this all down for us ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ

And also practically it's a business matter too - even if you get people's attention in the short term, if you can't back it up with a real deliverable, the trust will continue to dissappear along with funding and eventual customers

Perhaps! My reading from the Google announcement is that they believe that quantum computers will be useful for one or more real-world tasks in 5 years, but let's see! Also interesting take on AGI, let's see about that too (no strong opinions on my side!)

Not at all a stupid question! But unfortunately we (i.e. the whole quantum community) are still far away from running any real QLLMs on a quantum computer - not enough qubits and too noisy. I'm not an expert in QLLMs but I imagine we will need something like millions of qubits
