What topic have you been wanting to start on this forum but have not got round to yet - honest opinions

[Glenn_44]

Simple question. What discussion have you been carrying around in your head that you have not started here yet. Could be a technical question, a discussion prompt, a project you want feedback on, or something you just want other people's take on.

Post it here and we will tell you whether to start the thread

[IronWolf]

A thread on the ethics of using AI to help write academic papers that then get submitted as your own work. Feels important and I know it will get heated

[Jan79]

Whether the current quantum computing investment bubble has the same structure as the dot-com bubble and what the equivalent of pets.com looks like in this space

[ElPresidente]

A proper discussion of whether nuclear power is the correct answer to data centre energy demand from AI. I keep seeing it mentioned and never seeing it actually argued through

[Forge37]

I want to run a thread where people share the moment they first understood something in physics or maths that had been confusing them. The aha moment thread

[JohnyBlue]

A thread on what home lab setups people are running for AI and quantum simulation work. Hardware, software, what works, what does not

[Matt_81]

Whether open source AI models will close the gap to frontier models in the next two years or whether the capability gap is structural and permanent

[Rob72]

A comparison thread where people describe the worst technical explanation they received for something they already understood well. The patronising explanation thread

[Tara_66]

Something about the long term preservation of digital work. If AI generates your creative output today is it still accessible in twenty years in any meaningful sense

[Teal Sparrow]

I want to ask people what they would do differently if they were starting to learn about quantum computing from scratch in 2026 with everything that now exists
