Following a number of technical setbacks, the Mayflower autonomous research vessel has successfully crossed the Atlantic Ocean, clocking up 3,500 miles and arriving in Halifax, Nova Scotia, on June 5.
-
IBM and Samsung have unveiled a new semiconductor chip design they say can enable the continuation of Moore's Law and allow for smartphones that run for weeks on a charge, among some other interesting possibilities.
-
IBM has unveiled the Eagle, the world’s most powerful quantum processor. Boasting 127 quantum bits (qubits), the Eagle is a major step towards commercial quantum computers outperforming traditional machines.

Magnetic tape may seem an antiquated data storage technology, but its density and capacity is still hard to beat for big data centers. Now, IBM and Fujifilm have created a prototype high-density tape cartridge with a record-breaking 580 TB capacity.
-
IBM security analysts have discovered a global phishing campaign designed to infiltrate organizations associated with managing cold chain supplies of COVID-19 vaccines. The analysis suggests this campaign bears the hallmarks of nation-state spycraft.

A tool has been developed that can predict a person’s age based on a microbiome sample. The tool, developed in collaboration between UC San Diego and IBM researchers, is most accurate at predicting a person’s age when using a skin microbiome sample.
-
IBM has this week unveiled a new battery that relies on materials from seawater instead of heavy metals, with its early testing suggesting these components mightn't mean a compromise in performance, either.
-
Google has announced that it has achieved “quantum supremacy,” the point where a quantum computer successfully performs an operation considered impossible for traditional computers. But rival IBM disagrees that this has been achieved at all.
