Well, we don't know if we can build UMM's. This does seem to strongly contradict a lot of ideas that no computational system in the physical world will be able to beat a Turing Machine exponentially. In a way UMM's right now are just saying "what if we can do this special computing thing" and proving that than P=NP. It only becomes surprising if we can actually build them.
- bglazer 12y agoDid they actually build one? I got the impression that they have a working memcomputing machine, albeit one that is non-universal.
- JacobEdelman 12y agoDid they build something that can break P=NP? No. If I'm right then I'll look smart and if I'm wrong than I'll be too excited to care. Also, if I'm wrong I have to go to a quite retreat somewhere and rethink the nature of reality.
