On the Impact of Classical and Quantum Communication Networks Upon Modular Quantum Computing Architecture System Performance
Modular architectures are a promising approach to scaling quantum computers beyond the limits of monolithic designs. However, non-local communications between different quantum processors might significantly impact overall system performance. In this work, we investigate the role of the network infrastructure in modular quantum computing architectures, focusing on coherence loss due to communication constraints. We analyze the impact of classical network latency on quantum teleportation and ide…

Enhancing Essay Cohesion Assessment: A Novel Item Response Theory Approach
Essays are considered a valuable mechanism for evaluating learning outcomes in writing. Textual cohesion is an essential characteristic of a text, as it facilitates the establishment of meaning between its parts. Automatically scoring cohesion in essays presents a challenge in the field of educational artificial intelligence. The machine learning algorithms used to evaluate texts generally do not consider the individual characteristics of the instances that comprise the analysed corpus. In this…

Stanford study: LLMs struggle to respond appropriately to questions about delusions, suicide, and OCD, but AI could play valuable supportive roles to therapists (Benj Edwards/Ars Technica)

AI therapy bots fuel delusions and give dangerous advice, Stanford study finds
Popular chatbots serve as poor replacements for human therapists, but study authors call for nuance.
