@QuantinuumQC As the inventor of the quantum token scheme and co-author of the papers mentioned in yr white paper, may I point out this is not, as you claim, the first demonstration. A complete demonstration with proven quantum advantage was reported in https://t.co/Fgly1PmsyP .

Job and MPhil opportunities! (Fwd) The Centre for the Study of Existential Risk (CSER) will be launching an MPhil in Global Risk and Resilience this year, with our first cohort of students planned for October 2025.
We are now beginning to advertise for various roles

[Adrian Kent @Adrian_Kent]

starting with two Assistant Professors and a Postgraduate Co-ordinator. We will also be hiring a Teaching Associate in the coming months. The Assistant Professors will co-lead the world's first full-time postgraduate course in Existential Risk Studies.

Joined this week for the launch of a new book, Radically Legal, by @jkkusiak It's focussed on her work on referenda in Berlin trying to use a neglected article in the German constitution to enable expropriation/socialisation of Berlin housing from private equity.

[Adrian Kent @Adrian_Kent]

The first referendum passed, but was non-binding; they are now working on a second, binding, one. The book is v readably written and discusses also larger issues of law, democracy, politics and life. Recommended, whether or not you are likely to align with the campaign:

I am extremely honoured to announce that today marks my first day as an Assistant Professor at @Cambridge_Uni, at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics.

I am very excited about the challenges and opportunities ahead as I embark on this new chapter!

[Adrian Kent @Adrian_Kent]

Sorry, 26 *April* 2024 is the deadline. But why not do it in March anyway and relax over Easter :-) ?

Last night the Las Vegas sphere was used to simulate a quantum computer.

The fidelity was amazing, but scaling beyond one qubit will be tough ����
