The Power of A* Algorithm in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics

Redazione RHC 30/11/2025

Nearly everything artificial intelligence does today is based on a simple but fundamental idea: any problem can be reduced to finding a path from a starting point to a goal. The computer considers several states, evaluates which are closest to the result, and proceeds in sequence until it finds a solution. The most obvious comparison is navigation. When a person plots a route on the London Underground, say from Bond Street to King’s Cross, they mentally consider the options: the Central Line to Oxford Circus, a transfer to the Victoria Line, Warren Street, Euston, and finally the final destination. A computer does

China surpasses US in open-source AI models

Redazione RHC 28/11/2025

China surpasses the United States in the global market for open-source artificial intelligence (AI) models. According to a November 26 Financial Times report, a study by MIT and open-source AI startup Hugging Face found that the share of downloads of open-source AI models developed by Chinese teams rose to 17% over the past year, surpassing their American counterparts for the first time and gaining a key lead in the global application of AI technology. Amid the AI boom sweeping the global tech industry, US tech giants such as OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic tend to adopt a ” closed ” strategy, maintaining complete

Ettore Accenti: The Italian Tech Pioneer Who Brought Intel to Italy

Carlo Denza 25/11/2025

With exclusive photographs and unpublished documents: the extraordinary story of the Italian engineer who collaborated with Gordon Moore and Alan Sugar, bringing Intel to Italy and building the first tech empire with Amstrad. 1987. Milan. An entrepreneur receives a phone call from London: create an Italian branch from scratch in three months. With August in between, there were only two months left. Impossible. December 1987: 20 billion lire in turnover. 1989: 120 billion. 2,000 stores built from scratch. From 15 to 60 employees. This is the story of Ettore Accenti , Intel’s first representative in Europe, the man who brought personal computers

Alibaba Qwen3Max Dominates AI Market with Rapid Growth

Redazione RHC 24/11/2025

On November 24, Alibaba announced Qwen3Max, which had been in public beta for a week , and had already surpassed 10 million downloads. It was a record that shattered all others. In a very short time, it had overshadowed ChatGPT, Sora , and even DeepSeek , becoming the fastest-growing AI application ever seen. It was Alibaba’s second China move in 2025 , after DeepSeek had already shaken up the industry earlier this year. The Chinese giant’s shares rose 4.13% in Hong Kong. No overly pompous official announcements, no flashy livestream events: just numbers that spoke for themselves. And the markets, as usual,

Famous Hackers: The Story of Gary McKinnon.

A few months after the attacks on the World Trade Center, a strange message appeared on a U.S. Army computer: “Your security system is shit” it read. “I am Alone. But I will continue to disrupt at the highest levels.” The Greatest Military Cyber Attack of All Time In fact, Gary McKinnon, single-handedly scanned thousands of U.S. government machines and discovered obvious security flaws in many of them. Solo broke into nearly a hundred PCs within the Army, Navy, Air Force, NASA, and the Department of Defense between February 2001 and March 2002. Solo navigated through them for months, copying files and

Pope warns: “AI is not the devil, but it can become one without ethics”

The head of the Catholic Churchhas expressed concern about the way today’s children and adolescents interact with digital technologies. In his viewthe abundance of information available through neural networks and other intelligent systems can seriously affect the mental and intellectual development of the younger generations. Pope Leo XIV has warned of the risks thatthe rapid development of artificial intelligence could pose to young people. He expressed his position at the Second Annual Rome Conference on AI, part of which is being held in the Vatican. At the same time, the Pontiff noted that artificial intelligence in itself does not pose a threat. It can be

Cryptography at Risk: MIT develops a Quantum Algorithm to crack RSA.

Tara Lie 27/08/2024

Modern encryption methods, such as RSA, are based on the fact that even the most powerful classical computers are not able to quickly decompose a large number into prime factors. However, quantum computers promise to considerably accelerate this process, thanks to an algorithm proposed by Peter Shor in 1994, which demonstrated that a quantum computer could break RSA encryption. Over the last 30 years, scientists have been actively developing quantum computers, but up until now they have not been able to create a powerful enough device to execute Shor’s algorithm. It requires a quantum computer with about 20 million qubits, while modern

Musk’s Supercomputer in Memphis is ready! 100,000 liquid-cooled Nvidia H1s.

Redazione RHC 23/07/2024

Elon Musk, who simultaneously heads six innovative companies-Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink, X (formerly known as Twitter), Neuralink, and xAI-is not stopping there. He recently announced that xAI has begun training its models on the world’s most powerful artificial intelligence cluster: the Memphis Supercluster, located in Memphis, Tennessee. According to the publication WREG , this supercomputer will represent the largest capital investment by a new market company in the city’s history. However, despite its ambitious plans, xAI does not yet have an agreement with the local energy company Tennessee Valley Authority, which is necessary to provide the project with electricity with a capacity of
