It was reading his early works, that got me interested in quantum information theory and caused me to shift fields, so I owe a lot to him. This paper on the thermodynamics of computation is a classic: sites.cc.gatech.edu/computing/na... 3/3
In late 2025, tools Like Claude Code crossed a threshold. Like hyperactive master's students, their physics calculations can now be made more reliable with domain expertise and some scaffolding. Check out Tobias Osborne's talk on using a swarm of agentic verifers to do physics.

Congratulations to Charlie Bennett and Gilles Brassard for winning the 2026 Turing Award (akin to the Nobel Prize for Computer Science)! They invented quantum cryptography and quantum teleportation. awards.acm.org/turing 🧪 ⚛️ 1/
We are especially focued on using quantum technologies to probe the quantum nature of spacetime, and more details can be found in the link. For full consideration apply by April 24, but we'll consider applications on a rolling basis afterwards. 2/2
