The latest episode of "No otras puses", a programme on the Latvian news site TVNET, features scientist Andris Ambainis as its guest. The episode title describes him as a scientist "in a quantum state". The description touches on three connected technology topics: artificial intelligence, quantum computers and autonomous weapons systems.

Maths problems

According to the description, artificial intelligence has very recently solved hundreds of highly complex mathematical problems. It reportedly solved one of them within a few hours, even though scientists around the world had worked on it for almost 30 years.

Quantum computers and autonomous weapons

The text also says quantum computers promise to transform science. Autonomous weapons systems, meanwhile, are already raising the question of whether a machine can be trusted with a decision over a human life.

The source text is only a short programme description. It does not set out what Ambainis said on these subjects, and it does not name the AI system or the specific maths problems.
