Researchers at MIT and Maynooth University have created a telecoms chip that can universally error correct noise found during transmission of data on a network without needing to know the structure of the noise beforehand. Hat tip to the Maynooth part of the team who I presume had dibs on naming the chip GRAND (Guessing Random Additive Noise Decoding)!
