Double-slit experiment holds up when stripped to its quantum essentials

MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum physics. Their findings demonstrate, with atomic-level precision, the dual yet evasive nature of light. They also happen to confirm that Albert Einstein was wrong about this particular quantum scenario. The experiment in question is the double-slit experiment, which was first performed in 1801 by the British scholar Thomas Young to show how light behaves as a wave. Today, with the formulation of

Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Samsung revise advertising over exaggerated AI claims after regulator scrutiny

Cutting corners: As the landscape for AI-powered products evolves, companies face growing demands to deliver not just innovation, but clearly supported and honestly communicated claims about what their technology can actually do.

"Sometimes that exaggeration isn't just puffery. It's a performance claim, and you need to back tha

Anthropic beats OpenAI as the top LLM provider for business - and it's not even close

oxygen/Getty ZDNET's key takeaways Programming is AI's killer app. The top business AI, especially for programming, is Anthropic. Open-source AI is lagging behind its proprietary competitors.

As of mid-2025, however, Anthropic is the leading enterprise LLM provider, with 32% of enterprise usage, according to Menlo Ventures, an early-stage ve

I bought Samsung's Galaxy Watch Ultra 2025 - here's why I have buyer's remorse

Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra ZDNET's key takeaways The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra is on sale for $650 in four color options.

I’ve used Pixel and Galaxy phones for a decade, and Google wins in one aspect every time

Robert Triggs / Android Authority I’ve been using smartphones since 2011, and they’ve all been Samsung and Google devices (aside from a few other brands due to my job). Both companies have come a long way over the years, and while the S24 Ultra is my phone of choice for now, that may soon change for one reason. Pixels and Galaxy phones each have their strengths and weaknesses, but one thing I’ve always found Google is best at is customer support, while Samsung has more reliable devices. As I t

Twist on Famous Double-Slit Experiment Deals a Blow to Einstein’s Quantum Doubts

Albert Einstein famously disliked quantum theory’s understanding that physical objects, including light, exist as both a particle and a wave, and that this duality could not be simultaneously observed. But a new, simple iteration of a foundational quantum experiment offers the most conclusive, direct evidence yet that Einstein may have been wrong. In a recent paper for Physical Review Letters, MIT scientists successfully replicated the double-slit experiment on the atomic scale, allowing for an

Samsung’s Galaxy S25 FE is coming into focus, and here’s what to expect

TL;DR A new leak has revealed a more complete spec sheet for the Galaxy S25 FE. The phone is expected to feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, Exynos 2400 chip, and 45W charging.

VC industry has become a better career for women over the past 7 years

Samsung’s 60W Galaxy S26 Ultra upgrade is exciting, but I have concerns

As a proponent of fast charging convenience, the report that Samsung will increase the power of next year’s Galaxy S26 Ultra to 60W is music to my ears. The current 45W power level is already in a sweet spot, taking just under an hour to fully charge the phone. Still, that extra boost will undoubtedly come in handy when you need to bring the phone back from the brink quickly. More juice in fewer minutes is always welcome when you’re in a hurry. And yet, I feel a sting of hesitation — a faster-
