    QuEra turns to AI to automate laser locking in quantum computers●AI Laser Locking for Quantum Computers: How QuEra Automates ItYhnSciencePhysics2847 min ago

    Quantum computing firm QuEra has described how it uses AI to automatically lock and tune the lasers that control its quantum computers. Keeping lasers precisely stabilised is a constant operational burden for neutral-atom systems, and automating the task with machine learning reduces manual intervention. Readers on Hacker News are discussing the approach, weighing its practical value for scaling quantum hardware against questions about how much of the process is genuinely novel.

    Genome Study Reveals How Antarctic Fish Survived Freezing Waters●Jumping Genes and Antifreeze: New Genome Assembly Reveals How Antarctic Fish Conquered the Cold✉newsScienceBiology4 h ago

    A newly assembled genome of Antarctic notothenioid fish shows that transposable elements, or jumping genes, played a key role in the evolution of the fish's antifreeze glycoproteins, which allow it to live in ice-laden Southern Ocean waters. The findings shed light on how genome flexibility drove adaptation to extreme cold.
