researcher on quantum error correction

Paris
Certainly the most surprising result in my career so far: a new qLDPC decoder that I thought had no chance to work! We call it the Frontier decoder, joint work with Rüdiger Urbanke (1/4)

When people say that physics will not follow the same path as pure math, they don't know what they're talking about.
Wow, I just found out that our team has been scooped by @AnthropicAI anthropic.com/research/yes-c… See the addendum of the post “How does it feel to be scooped by a machine?” written by my collaborator Lance Dixon (who was under NDA while checking the result) I’m still processing, but not entirely surprised. I do I wish we had the time in the resources to commit to it.

QIP will be fun this year ! Don’t forget to submit your best work !
For talk submissions, remember to register by 28 Sep (23:59 AoE)! Registration only requires a title, short abstract, authors, and topic selections, but do note the recommended cutoff for the arXiv submission and talk submission - read the details at qipconference.org/2027/call/

indeed, reading a paper with AI (which is how i read papers these days) feels like reading an interactive paper, with the level of discussion automatically adapted to my expertise.
Generally, I think we won't rely on human-deslopped papers. People will be able slice and dice AI output using AI. Basically, we will end up with interactive papers.

It was only a matter of time.
I love the intellectual honesty and self-awareness here

was expected I guess, but this is bad news
🚨 Openai New Sub Pro Max: 500$ As I told you guys they were planning ( plan was upto 2k$ but i think someone gave then sense to 500$) you can read my quoted tweet , as always first with proof cc : @testingcatalog

"If you’re a student: The skill with the longest half-life is learning faster than the tools change. Every specific skill you master today is a moat AI erodes. The ability to master the next one is not. Stay curious. Have a purpose."

researchers first did that, and then embraced the AI revolution. Writers will do the same.
Les écrivains de bonne foi vont devoir s'interdire les facilités suspectes, comme le rythme ternaire, les doubles adjectifs, les métaphores. Ce sera un séisme programmé et contraint, une tectonique sourde et feutrée, un tsunami scriptural et littéraire.

Many researchers in computational complexity have a mental image of some invisible fence beyond which we (all of us) cannot prove stuff. Once in a blue moon - like in this paper - this fence is breached. Neat Human-AI collaboration.

So many people don’t realise that «  the day » will come fast.
every now and then I think about this and and get worried

Wondering whether it was OpenAI who also hacked the French tax system during the summer.
Australia has been hacked. 'And today, I spoke with the CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, to express Australia's extreme concern about this incident. And I also expressed my disappointment that it took the company way too long to inform the government what had occurred, and the nature of the way that that notification occurred as well was unacceptable.'

Completely irresponsible
So, is this how PsiQ cheats investors out of their money?

a large fraction of top papers in quantum computing now acknlowedge substantial contribution from AI. What is also fascinating is the speed at which the "AI disclosure" has become the norm for arxiv papers.

if you're a phD student starting right now, you can hope to solve millenium-type problems with your personal computer by the time your graduate. No pressure though!
Assuming that AI inference costs continue falling at the average historical rate, you will be able to produce a result equivalent to the Navier-Stokes solution for <$1,000 in 2030.

is this true, or is it that the mathematicians don't know about @thsottiaux 's resets?
I have made a correct guess: Al companies would try to recognise which user is a Mathematician. Still not knowing that you're indeed the fish seeing the bait, thinking there're benefits for you, only to finally be caught by the fishermen?

oh that's interesting! The authors share the draft generated by Astra, as a companion to their arxiv submission. arxiv.org/abs/2609.28028

looking forward for the take of experts
Claude has discovered a previously unknown enzyme system hidden in the DNA of bacteriophages. Beside the enzyme’s gene sits a long array of repeating DNA—a structure that looks somewhat similar to CRISPR. We don’t yet understand what this system does, but only a handful of known systems share its features, and all of them are able to cut, copy, and paste DNA. Historically, the discovery of such programmable systems has helped revolutionize medicine. CRISPR, for instance, is now the foundation of genetic medicines. But it will take much more work to learn what this system does, and whether it can be put to similar use. Read more: anthropic.com/news/claude-di…

How much AI is contributing to recent quantum papers on arxiv? Looking at the papers with at least 20 (or 50) votes on scirate for the past 3 months shows the speed of the revolution.
