Hace 1 día · Bush based his predictions almost solely on changing technology and what that technology could do for humanity. Leinster and Avery based their predictions on unchanging human nature, and what humans would do with the technology. That, in my opinion, is the point Avery was making, about what futurists like Vannevar Bush weren’t taking into ...
Bush was a principal organizer of the efforts to bring many German scientists, including Albert Einstein, to the U.S. before and after the war. He is mentioned throughout this document. 2. So I felt that all the evidence floating around linking Vannevar Bush to The Program needed to be rounded up and articulated in one place especially….

Conant, Thomas Farrell, Enrico Fermi, Hans Bethe, Richard Feynman, Isidor Isaac Rabi, Leslie Groves, Robert Oppenheimer, Frank Oppenheimer, Geoffrey Taylor, Richard Tolman, Edward Teller, and John von Neumann.
Hace 1 día · Quantum physics is challenging basic concepts about how materials behave. One of these concepts is that, unlike transparent glass or plastic, metals cannot conduct light in their interiors. This is why metals look shiny—they reflect the visible light that strikes them. Specifically, most metals reflect visible light because their plasma ...
Hace 7 horas · Researchers from MIT and the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab have created a machine-learning accelerator that is resistant to the two most common types of attacks. Their chip can keep a user’s health records, financial information, or other sensitive data private while still enabling huge AI models to run efficiently on devices.
