Nuclear power crucial for UK data centre growth, says Amazon chief

The head of Amazon Web Services (AWS) suggests that the UK needs to expand its nuclear energy capacity to support the increasing demands of data centres, especially those powering AI services.
AWS is planning to invest £8 billion in new data centres in the UK over the next four years, driven by the substantial energy consumption of these facilities.
While AWS is a major buyer of renewable energy, the growing demand for data centres is prompting the consideration of nuclear power as a reliable, zero-carbon source of continuous energy.
With data centres currently consuming 2.5% of the UK's electricity, projections indicate this could rise to 6% by 2030, highlighting the need for long-term energy planning and potential integration of nuclear technology.

First quantum simulation of chemical dynamics puts science on the edge

Researchers have achieved the first quantum simulation of dynamic chemical processes using a quantum computer, a milestone beyond the capabilities of classical supercomputers.
The study, published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, demonstrated the real-time simulation of chemical processes on a quantum device.
The quantum simulation involved molecules interacting with photons, revealing the dynamics of chemical bonds transitioning to higher energy states.
The nano institute's quantum computer at the University of Sydney simulated the interaction of photons with molecules like allene, butatriene, and pyrazine.
The simulation allowed researchers to observe the process occurring in milliseconds, significantly slower than its actual timeframe of femtoseconds.
This breakthrough enables a deeper understanding of how light drives chemistry in processes crucial to life, renewable energy, and medicine.
The quantum simulator's efficient analogue approach using a single trapped ion demonstrates its potential power in studying complex chemical dynamics.
The researchers believe that with a slight scaling up to 20-30 ions, quantum simulations could explore chemical systems beyond classical computing capabilities.
This development marks progress towards achieving 'quantum supremacy' in simulating chemical dynamics that classical computers cannot handle.
The quantum simulator's ability to accurately mimic real-time chemical dynamics using existing hardware opens doors for advancements in materials science and drug discovery.

Google is blocking a popular rival's file upload capability on Android by changing just one thing, and there's nothing they can do

Google has blocked full file upload capabilities in the Nextcloud Files Android app, affecting user experience and raising concerns about fairness, power, and competition in the digital ecosystem.
Nextcloud claims Google revoked the 'All files access' permission, leading to the disablement of uploads for non-media files on Android.
Nextcloud alleges unfair treatment under the guise of security, stating that Google is favoring its own apps and limiting competition in the cloud ecosystem.
Despite Google's recommendations to use alternative frameworks, Nextcloud argues that they do not meet its requirements and regulators have been slow to address the issue.
