The Quantum Leap: How MIT and OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 Sol Are Rewriting the Rules of Experimental Physics
By Felix Pinkston | September 11, 2026 In the quiet, climate-controlled depths of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Engineering Quantum Systems Group (EQuS) laboratory, a silent revolution is underway. For decades, the pursuit of functional quantum computing has been hindered by a "bottleneck of calibration"—a tedious, labor-intensive cycle of tuning superconducting qubits that often consumes […]
