Let's have a community discussion about the impact of LLMs on quantum information research, and how to react to it as a research community! 👩🔬⚛️🤖 🏛️ Head over to the IAQI forum 👇 discuss.iaqi.org/t/quantum-in... 🦋 Please share widely!
Quantum Information Processing research in the age of AI
Dear colleagues, Over the past weeks there have been more and more results in which AI models played a crucial role, not only in mathematics and theoretical computer science, but right at the heart o...

While the Fields Medal celebrates the under-40s, the mathematician Joan Birman has, at the age of 99, solved a major open problem in representations of the Braid groups, a topic she has worked on for more than 60 years.
just me or is it surprising that there are still "basic" topology to be learned about fundamental spaces in quantum? arxiv.org/abs/2607.18105
Topology of the Set of Entangled State
We investigate the topology of the set $\mathsf E$ of entangled bipartite density operators acting on $\mathbb{C}^{n_1}\otimes\mathbb{C}^{n_2}$. We start by showing that $\mathsf E$ is path-connected,...

big computer is conspiring to take away the only thing i've ever actually liked: the computer
#ResistanceRoots Ida Rhodes was born on this day in 1900 in Kamianets-Podilskyi, Ukraine. She was a mathematician, computer programmer and lecturer who was instrumental in early computer development in the U.S. She was also a fierce advocate for the disabled, often at great personal sacrifice. /1
wow — the preprint host, arxiv, is banning authors for a year if they submit papers with hallucinated citations 🤖
I find this unsettling: A new study in #Lancet shows that the number of faux citations in scientific articles is on the rise, and #AI is likely to blame. @aniloza.bsky.social reports. www.statnews.com/2026/05/07/l...

can someone help me understand why this paper is going crazy on scirate? an awesome theory result, or a practical breakthrough or both or something else?

while i was in amsterdam for 3 months i managed to run the length of 430 streets. not bad given i have roughly the same number of completed streets in seattle and i've been running here for 4 years

After nearly 6 years of consistent releases, mitiq has its first major release. I’m very happy to have shepherded this project for the time that I have, but this release is a culmination of over 90 people working together to make quantum computers suck a bit less.
