At the end of May, 40 mathematicians from academia and representatives from AI industry partners gathered at AIM’s home in Caltech Hall for a four-day workshop on AI and number theory, a branch of math that studies the properties of integers, or whole numbers. Participants came from across the country, Canada, and the United Kingdom to engage in morning presentations, afternoon discussion groups, and evening social activities.

Presentations included demonstrations of AI for those less familiar with the platforms and recollections by some of the scholars of their previous experiences using AI for mathematical challenges.

What if the future of computing is powered by light?

Tanmay Gupta (BS '24) is exploring that possibility through photonic computing, a rapidly advancing field that could help satellites process data in orbit instead of sending massive amounts of information back to Earth.

Read how Gupta’s lifelong fascination with space led him from a childhood telescope to Caltech, JPL, and the launch of a new space-photonics startup: alumni.caltech.edu/techer/stories/photonics-is-the-future

On June 17, the Caltech community, along with donors, state and local government representatives, and industry partners gathered to celebrate the dedication of the Dr. Allen and Charlotte Ginsburg Center for Quantum Precision Measurement. The center will help advance the work of experts working in three interrelated domains—quantum sensing, quantum information, and gravitational-wave detection—that are poised to transform communication, navigation, and medicine. The building was made possible with lead gifts from Broadcom, the Duan Family, Dr. Allen and Charlotte Ginsburg, and a grant from the Sherman Fairchild Foundation, in addition to several smaller gifts.
