    I usually watch your videos to learn about new concepts and ideas in fields completely unrelated to what I do, so this is the first time I actually watched a topic on something related to my field of study and work (Computer Engineering).
    And it has been such a great experience to see how elegantly you guys approached some of the concepts I've been trying to explain family and friends many times (because the question "so what exactly do you do?" or "how do computers actually work?" naturally pop). This gave me a very unique perspective on how much "simplification" is actually done on the subject to fit in a video, and how accurately and brilliantly the essence of the topic is captured.
    I already had a great level of respect for all the hard work that's being put in these videos, but it just went to the next level. Thanks for all the awesome work in educating the world.

    My professor in Computer architecture is doing research on quantum computers, and he said to us today that Google and IBM promise more than they actually know. He believes that it will take several decades to be able to use them really well and even then not in the sense of a private computer, but rather in large projects.

      Hmm, well, while it's definitely true that we're definitely still a few decades away from being able to do something like Schor's algorithm, I feel that's a bit cyncial. They've definitely made some absolutely remarkable progress. The current best is 127 "qubits". Those qubits are too unstable to even as much as all connect with each other with CNOT gates so that's in practice 0 qubits *but* ; it's definitely a lot further than I would have believed possible within a decade, 5 years ago. Suddenly; to me, the magical ~1000 qubits we'd need to have an *actual, useable, stable* 1-bit quantum computer, seems like it's within reach. And to me, that's absolutely astounding.

I also read the books you guys share with us. Although this is the first time I am having a hard time understanding a video topic. This is an interesting topic. I really wanna know in depth about it. It is going to be awesome if you guys come up with a new video related to this topic or even a whole series of videos. I really think there are people who will agree with this idea. A series of quantum theory is a great new topic to start. I really hope you guys read this comment and give it a think.

    I still have a hard time believing that quantum computing would ever work. Representing lots of states at once sounds good but im reality you're bound to run into precision problems. The good thing about traditional computer is that they have built in room for errors so, if the electrical current is a bit too high or too low, it is still rounded into 0 or 1, or a fault is detected. How can you detect an error in a superposition if 2^50 states?

    • @Noah-ws8ho
      @Noah-ws8ho 2 роки тому +19

      Quantum computing don't really hold more information than regular computers; it's a bit unfortunate that Kurzgesagt propagates that myth. It's better to think of Quantum computers as an evolution of a Probabilistic computer, which is something we have plenty available in the classical setting; think, with some randomnizer, have input of 0 with probability A, and 1 with probability 1-A. The set of "superpositions" ends up being just the set of different combinations of probabilities - this ends up being large, in fact, infinitely large, since A is a real number! And further, looking at several bits, the number of possibilities grows exponentially. But that isn't a problem.
      You did still accidentally bring up a good point though; current technology gives us very large errors on basic computations for quantum computers, which is a problem, since errors accumulate exponentially. However, this is something the very active research field of "Quantum Error Correction" hopes to solve; essentially, our objective is to have a set of "self-correcitng qubits", each consisting of their own set of qubits. The self-correcting qubits are able to reduce the error probabilities to something manageable. However, with our current best algorithms and current best tech to implement quantum computers, we'd need ~1000 regular qubits to construct even a single self-correcting qubit!
      IBM has recently produced a 127 (normal) qubit computer. They are aiming for 1000 normal qubits by 2025 (so is Google); once that barrier has been breached, we will have our first real, useable quantum computers, that don'T immediately collapse due to rappidly accumulating errors.

    • @tomjones3993

      Not exactly, the most difficult part of quantum computing is actually operating them. They can successfully create multi qbit processors and supercool them to run effectively but they are having trouble with the programming.
      Right now they have to be programmed using complex algorithms just to actually get usable information out of them, and each different problem being computed must be individually programmed.
      Right now lockheed martin is using a 512qbit D-wave 2 and google is using an experimental 1024(i think)qbit D-wave 2. At this point they have not been able to compute anything complex, accurately or on a repeatable basis so it's still very early days.
      But I honestly think this is next stage in human advancement without a doubt.

    Since this video has been released, transistors have decreased in size furthermore. An iPhone XS or later has a transistor size of 7 nm, which was pretty revolutionary since it was one of the only devices to be mass-produced with such an architecture. In the past year, however, 7 nm transistors are becoming more prevalent in PCs. In 2019, 5 nm technology has become commercialized, though not on a massive scale. Even now, Samsung has announced they plan to commercialize 3 nm technology.
    The important thing to note here is that we design these transistors often decades before they become commercial. For example, 10 nm technology was first designed in the 1980s before being created in 2002 and commercialized in 2016. Currently, the smallest transistor created is at 2.3 nm, which may signal that we are at an end for transistors, considering how the disparity between the size of created transistors and the size of commercialized transistors has diminished greatly.
    Currently, some major nanotech research firms have considered 14-angstrom transistors (14Å, one angstrom is 10^-10 meters, 1 ten-billionth), which is about half the width of a DNA helix, by around 2025. However, whether or not we will be able to actually realize this is up for debate for the reasons mentioned in this video.

      @@tuxedo_productions Dude thanks for this. It's so frustrating seeing everyone just type a bunch of bullshit in the comments. I get Kurzgesagt tries to aim for the lowest common denominator and there are better channels for scientific discussion but it's still disappointing nonetheless.
      The fact you have two douchebags here saying "too long" and "I couldn't read all this" is awful. I can somewhat wrap my head around the concepts in this video but I _completely_ fail to understand why the fuck someone would fail to read something, then spend the time and energy expressing that they didn't read it.
      TL;DR You're awesome and thanks for having something to teach us (which should be why we're all here). If anyone's interested, one of the concepts being discussed in the video and in your comment is called Moore's Law.

      Just tell her that scientists are learning how to manipulate the unique mathematical properties of Psi (the symbol used to denote the wavestate of a quanta, or even discrete group of quanta) to cheat universe by selling precision for speed, then cheating it back again the opposite way and making a profit twice in order to feed everyone with a few loaves of bread and a couple fish. It's kinda a bastardization of buying options, short selling and leveraging market speculation, but with the tiniest pieces of reality. And bizarrely enough it turns out that our universe actually does work that way? (Yes, I'm hideously oversimplifying and making broken metaphors, but what do you expect with a subject this complex.) Apparently God was a Capitalist with Socialist ambitions.

      I got pretty deep into this one myself. Really enjoyed it. Took a break at around chapter sixteen or seventeen. Once he establishes basic logic gates, the complexity picks up pretty quickly.
      Important note: This book covers computers as we know them today (when the book was written actually). I don't believe it covers the quantim bits. Even still, just understanding bits first can help shed some light on what they're discussing in the video here.

    Fun fact about CPU transistors: You keep hearing the term "(X)nm transistors" in Intel/AMD chips, but many people don't know what that means.
    The 'nm' is nanometer, which is used in microscopic measurements, so that means transistors are exceedingly small these days... The Apple Silicon chips have 5 nanometer transistors and Apple says they're developing 2 nanometer ones right now.
    Let's make this simple, how thick is a strand of hair in nanometers? About 90,000... Substantial number, yes?
    Now, how thick is a single strand of DNA? 0.90 nanometers...
    Right now, we are on the verge of making transistors smaller than DNA, meaning they are already smaller than the cells that make up the human body... Let that sink in!
