Researchers at Google, Stanford, Princeton say that they have used Google’s quantum computer to demonstrate a ‘time crystal’.

“…computational complexity theory leads to new perspectives on the nature of mathematical knowledge, the strong AI debate, computationalism, the problem of logical omniscience, Hume’s problem of induction, Goodman’s grue riddle, the foundations of quantum mechanics, economic rationality, closed timelike curves, and several other topics of philosophical interest.”
