The newly discovered Zenbleed vulnerability (CVE-2023-20593) affects all Zen2 processors from AMD. Unfortunately, AMD will not provide microcode updates for many of its processors until November or December 2023. How to stay safe in the meantime? Luckily, there is a software workaround. While applying the software workaround is a one-liner… Read More

This article shows the applicability of both classical and quantum machine learning algorithms on several data sets. Here, the authors developed one of the data sets based on quantum mechanical symmetry properties. The results show that classical machine learning algorithms still perform best in terms of accuracy and runtime, even… Read More
