The Tianhe-1A Supercomputer NVIDIA Quantum Entanglement Means Computers Could Cool Themselves By Deleting Information -- Popular Science
But don't wipe your hard drives just yet.
It’s common empirical knowledge that computing generates heat--go ahead, touch the bottom of your MacBook--but a new paper in the journal Nature claims that it doesn’t have to. In fact, under the right conditions, theoretical physicists say that deleting data can actually produce negative heat--that is, it can have a cooling effect. That’s right, this is a quantum mechanics post. Exit now if you don’t want a headache to start the weekend.
