Take a tour of the Google Quantum AI lab. Every step is vital to building quantum computing for unsolvable problems. goo.gle/3TmNKLk

Might conscious processing = intuition? Our scientific founder Suzanne Gildert is hard at work testing a dizzying array of quantum computing variables in our search of conscious processing. She theorizes that if we engineer a quantum state to be large and complex enough, its

Join Suzanne Gildert in 2026 in Tucson! At The Science of Consciousness ('TSC') is an interdisciplinary conference emphasizing rigorous approaches to the study of consciousness and its place in the universe. consciousness.arizona.edu

How does a mind “change its mind”? How do we update our prior model to what we now believe to be true? What changes it? One camp (including Nirvanic) proposes that conscious awareness, whatever it is, plays a role. Others say no, consciousness is an illusion, and minds, neurons

We’re excited to announce Atlantic Quantum, an MIT-founded startup, is joining Google Quantum AI. Their work on integrated quantum hardware will accelerate our roadmap toward building a large scale error-corrected quantum computer ↓ goo.gle/3KuOX1S

The maturing of quantum computing finally allows us to test the idea that consciousness is rooted in quantum physics. By connecting robots to real-time quantum processors, Nirvanic is exploring if features like superposition and wave function collapse provide a spark of

Congratulations to John Martinis for winning a Nobel prize in physics today, along with Michel Devoret and John Clarke!  My entire PhD in quantum physics was based on Martinis' work on macroscopic quantum tunnelling in Josephson Junctions (a device like a "transistor", but for

Hosting the Honourable Evan Solomon , Canada’s Minister of AI and Digital Innovation, and Taleeb Noormohamed 🇨🇦, MP & Parliamentary Secretary, at Sanctuary AI was an incredible privilege. Proud to be building Physical AI in a country that champions innovation and the future of AI and

Can robots become conscious? Suzanne Gildert gives this podcast interview on her path from D-Wave’s early quantum machines to Nirvanic AI, where she’s testing if quantum processes in robots can produce signs of awareness and curiosity. 👇 youtu.be/b2QBg-KhiJI?si… It weaves

Quantum, robots, consciousness!! Super fun and mind-expanding conversation! Check out the link below.

Taking a break from her quantum computing, Nirvanic’s founder, Suzanne Gildert, also paints “retro-circuits” with acrylic on canvass. “It depicts technology trying to help us understand the universe.”

Today in nature, we published a breakthrough demonstration of verifiable quantum advantage using a measurement known as out-of-time-order correlator (OTOC), or Quantum Echoes. Performed on our Willow chip, it paves a path toward real-world applications → goo.gle/3Jqaqst

I share Michael Levin’s notion that the creation of coherence in the mind via consciousness is similar to how organisms form coherent morphology. Does that mean that plants and animal bodies are conscious and sentient? Does the body become aware of itself? How would we know?

Do conscious observers collapse the wavefunction? Yes. But materialists get confused by this because many think conscious observation is limited to humans - and perhaps some other animals. But if you are a panpsychist, observers are everywhere, in all matter. So tiny observers

Definitions of "subconscious" versus "conscious" are very confusing. Some people use subconscious to mean autonomic processes, whereas others use it to mean a kind of intuition or pre-verbal thought. I think a lot of the things we call "subconscious" are conscious processes

I am absolutely LOVING the emerging debate around Teleological Panpsychism vs Many Worlds. It’s becoming better formulated over time - and clearly there are two main camps. To summarize: Most people believe that either a.) Everything that can happen does happen somewhere in the

Consider the following situation. You are sitting, happily aware of whatever is on your mind right now. Until I tell you to notice the fact that you are breathing. Something happens. Something shifts. The information around your breathing was being processed just fine before, but
