IBM has plans to build the world's biggest quantum computer, but in order to do that, it first has to build an enormous, subzero freezer to put it in.

After two years of work on design, construction, and A.I. training, the Mayflower Autonomous Ship will officially take to the water Wednesday.

Last year, Michael J. Fox teamed up with IBM to help find a cure to Parkinson's disease. Today, they announced their results so far.

IBM's Jason Kelley said in an interview with Digital Trends Live that the company moved away from facial recognition development to lead a dialogue on tech.

In a letter to Congress, IBM CEO Arvind Krishna said IBM is exiting the facial recognition business and called for new reforms to combat racial injustice.

A researcher in IBM’s Zurich Research Laboratory has built a high-end microscope out of Legos and other cheap parts. With the instructions online, you can too.

The fight against coronavirus is getting support from 16 supercomputers thanks to a consortium of agencies and companies including Amazon, Google, and NASA.

At the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, researchers are using an IBM supercomputer to lay the groundwork for a coronavirus vaccine.

This trial, which will take place off the coast of Plymouth in the U.K., will test out the onboard A.I. and edge computing system to see how well it navigates.

At the start of a new decade, one of IBM's top researchers thinks artificial intelligence needs to change. Welcome to the world of neuro-symbolic A.I., a fresh approach that could keep advances coming for long into the 2020s. Here's how it works -- and why it could be so important.

The heavy metals used to make modern batteries are an environmental and humanitarian nightmare. IBM is busy developing a novel battery technology which could eliminate the need for such materials altogether in battery production. And it has some impressive performance boosts, too.

Since the 1980s, scientists have dreamed about using the hypothetical power of quantum computers to solve some of the biggest problems known to humankind. IBM researcher James Wootton wants to use them to create computer games. Here's what you need to know about quantum gaming.

The first baby to have their birth certificate officially recorded on the blockchain has been registered in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Because we're totally living in the future, don't you know? Here's what it could mean for the next generation of record-keeping as we know it.

Could smart sensor technology help make firefighters’ jobs a bit less dangerous? That’s the hope of Prometeo, a Spanish team that was announced as the winners of IBM’s Call for Code 2019 competition. Here's what the team has developed -- and how it promises to help.

Scientists at IBM Research have used cutting-edge A.I. algorithms to help examine some of the secrets of dark matter DNA, the unexplored molecules and matter surrounding our genes which make up more than half of the human genome. Here's what they have discovered so far.

This summer marks one year since California’s deadliest and most destructive wildfire season ever. Could cutting-edge technology help avoid future incidents? The folks behind Bee2FireDetection certainly believe that it can. They’ve developed technology aimed at helping spot fires earlier.

IBM has developed a smart artificial intelligence with an appreciation for what makes a great tennis match. On display at the recent Wimbledon, it was used to create highlights packages. Here's how IBM developed it -- and why tools like it are the future of sport broadcasting.

On this episode of Digital Trends Live, we discuss the biggest trending tech stories of the day, including a Google and Amazon video service truce, an IBM foldable watch, Waymo’s robo-taxi perks, Amazon moves to be your home internet provider, Donkey Kong celebrates a birthday, and more.

Folding smartphones haven’t even properly arrived and they've already been surpassed in desirability by a folding smartwatch from IBM that goes from having a single small screen to a mini tablet on your wrist. It’s unlike anything we’ve seen. Sadly, the watch just a concept in a patent; and IBM is addicted to filing them.

Computer scientists at IBM Research have developed an A.I.-assisted e-tongue. The sensor-filled portable device promises to identify different liquids based on their taste alone -- whether that's bottled water, raw materials or, err, bodily fluids. Here is how it works.

Imagine Photoshop for the deep fake generation. No, we're not quite there yet, but researchers at IBM and MIT have created an amazing demo showing how cutting-edge A.I. is going to power future image-editing tools. Check out their demonstration -- and have a go for yourself.

There's something dystopian about the idea of a future in which robots care for the elderly. But is this something we should really fight against? A number of new projects show that a future of caregiving robots and artificial intelligence may be just what the doctor ordered.
