Integrating technology into schools involves understanding the dynamic relationship between technology, how it’s used in the classroom and the content of the curriculum.
Coding is beneficial to children, irrespective of their career path later on in life.
Google claims quantum supremacy – IBM says not so fast. One researcher explains why he doesn’t see quantum computers outpacing classical computers any time soon … and maybe not ever.
As the country grew, each census required greater effort than the last. That problem led to the invention of the punched card.
The first computer, named the ABC, was built at Iowa State University. But for a long time, few had heard of it.
Researchers have developed implants small enough to fit inside brain cells.
Algorithms are only human (well, designed by humans) but we need to trust they’ll do what they’re supposed to do. And that means we need a better way to test them.
Hardware could exploit the properties of scattered light so that computations happen at high speed and with low power consumption.
The head of Google’s Quantum AI Labs, Hartmut Neven, claims the current speed of development means a quantum computing breakthrough is near.
Humans are the weak link in cyber security. But there may be a solution to making us safer, using the technology of exercise and lifestyle apps
The earliest typewriters had the letter keys in alphabetical order. The trouble was that if you hit two keys quickly the levers would jam.
Society needs cybersecurity professionals who can protect systems and mitigate damage.
The first thing to know is that Siri is not a “who” – Siri is a “what”.
Computers were once considered high-end technology, only accessible to scientists and trained professionals. Today, almost everyone has one. Will quantum computing follow the same path?
Thanks to the prevalence of technology, children are exposed to thousands of commercials a year. How can parents make their children more aware of how commercials influence what they think and do?
Both the Coalition and Labor agreed to new laws that will give law enforcement agencies the power to access encrypted systems.
Later this month, Christie’s will be auctioning its first piece of AI art – a portrait created via machine learning.
The Mother of All Demos.
In 1968 computers were the size of a room. But after the founding of Intel and the introduction of the mouse that year they would eventually fit in a pocket – and change the Silicon Valley forever.
Technological professionals are the first, and last, lines of defense against the misuse of technology.
