      I have recently come to the conclusion that we probably live at a stage of a reincarnation of the Roman empire which is equivalent to the first century of the common era. This would mean that within the upcoming 88 years, technological progress likely would largely come to an end, for a while, just like that has happened at some point later in the first century.

    Regarding what the medical doctor mentioned about using a quantum computer, it certainly seems to me that one of the biggest problems in medicine is the human physiology is so complex that there is no one size fits all for every patient but that is what is done in the interest of efficiency and cost. There have been people, scientist who have cured their own cancer but it required a targeted medication made specifically for that one person. I would anticipate in the future and that when someone gets a disease instead of taking the next most promising drug, a new drug will be made specifically for that person.., imagine that?

      We don’t even know how consciousness works, all current machine learning tech is just a probability machine mimicking patterns in data inputed by humans. We input labeled data and it outputs a baked cake with a black box inbetween. programmers have no ability to understand or access the recipe. all current “ai” hallucinates and outputs nonsense on occasion because it doesn’t understand anything at all it just mimics patterns. You can supercharge our current techniques by a trillion and you may get extremely powerful incomprehensibly flawed tools that can be used to complete complicated tasks but without utterly groundbreaking approaches theorized by humans they will be as conscious and intelligent as a hammer. Simply adding more compute doesn’t get us any closer to creating a consciousness.

Especially in the near solar system by earth's orbit where it averages around 50 degrees fahrenheit (about 10 c or about 287 kelvin) (really it's two temperatures, with a drastic swing depending on whether you're in direct sunlight or behind the earth, but it's never colder than about a hundred degrees kelvin). Absolute zero is COLD, and these things need to get ridiculously close in order to get the superconductive properties they need for the qubits to work.

    (One note: Dario Gill correctly points out that IBM's Qiskit makes quantum computing accessible for users to solve problems with traditional classical computer languages and techniques. But, for those who want to explore a whole new realm, the programming techniques within a quantum computer actually do use a different and fascinating concept of programming. Most users won't need to go down to that level, but those that choose to will find it a rewarding experience.)

      I think you need to watch the video again. When we think in terms of binary code, it doesn't matter what you write the program in: C++, Python, Assembly Language ... all the data is essentially 1's and 0's. So every 'word' or 'command' that you see in binary is some combination of one's and zero's. In eight bit it will be a total of eight 1's & 0's in various sequences that make up a "word". So in 16 bit, 32 bit, 64 bit or 128 bit, you either have 16, 32, 64, or 128 ones and zeros in various combinations that make up a single byte or "word" of data. But if you use the same processor to do work on larger and larger chunks of data the thorough put or processing speed becomes what slows everything down. So quantum computing uses 'states' or relative positions of electrons instead of 1's and 0's which means a bunch more information. Also there is a phenomenon in particle physics where if you take a particle or a constituent of an electron (I think) and take another particle from the same electron, they will always be in opposite states. Ie. If you change the spin or 'position' of one pair, the other will always be the polar opposite state. And this is true INDEPENDENT of distances between the particles. If there is a change to one positron, the other on another planet will reflect the change in opposite "spin" or state. Thus, regardless of distances, from one end of the galaxy to another, if you have access to the opposing particle or pair in use, you will have access to the same information, instantaneously. All you would need is a "machine" that could read the states of the particles that made up the information. And this machine would consist of particles in the quantum: gluons, quarks, or muons, etc. I think i have thecprinciples right. But the details may need tweeking. It's been a few years for me.

      The biggest hurdle is keeping the superconductivity stable and uniform... with all currently known materials, that involves getting ones with just the right properties AND cooling them down to practically absolute zero, a state that is very hard to maintain. It is theoretically possible that some material might be discovered (or synthesized, possibly discovered by AI) that can be superconductive at higher temperatures. Failing that, other advances in technology should also keep making these near-zero temperatures ever easier and more reliable to maintain, either way the systems will be getting more and more stable.

That is a problem candidate for a quantum computer. But most problems (at least the ones we have today) aren't like that and classical computers will remain the go to solution.
      The immediate impact by quantum computers will be an upheaval of cryptography due to them breaking certain algorithms that we rely on today. And by "rely" I really mean "rely". They guarantee almost all computational security in one way or another and without them the internet and much more would basically collapse. We're on track to get post-quantum replacements up and running, but it's still going to be sort of a "Y2K on steroids" to be sure.

      And there are a vast number of problems that we don't even care to find the exact answer but are happy to do 0.001 percent of the effort to get an answer that is just good enough for our application. Quantum leaps in compute capacity does not necessarily lead to quantum leaps in usefulness. 😊

      It's not millions of times faster. It's not even billions of times faster.
      I just watched a Taiwanese news channel talking about the latest quantum computer from China.
      It did certain calculations 10 TRILLION times faster than the fastest supercomputer in the world today.
      That's 10 Trillion with a T.
      (PS. That news channel is no micky mouse channel. They regularly have very high level guests in the panel)
      _( Disclaimer : In case I mistranslated the number. Anyone who can speak better Chinese than myself can confirm if my translation is correct. The Chinese word used was 1億億. I translate that to 10 trillion)_

The main character is visited by a 3-dimensional being and it goes from there. It's like our computers are in the 2-dimensional world (Binary) and now they're moving to a 3-dimensional world. From a 2-dimensional perspective, the possibilities seem limitless.

      @@marvinmartin4692 Quantum computers are designed to exploit Heisenbergs uncertainty principle. So, a bit can have both the values 0 and 1 at the same time. This is called "superposition". The trick is to use multiple of such quantum bits (qbits), and entangle them with each other, and then run them through some circuit that kind of filters the solutions with the highest "probability amplitude". That is one kind of quantum computers, and they have been proven useful on a very limited set of problems, i.e. factoring numbers and database search. However, it has proven problematic to scale up the number of bits, because of noise. At the moment the largest number that they can factor is 15 (=3*5). Yes, I kid you not!
      Then there is a different type of quantum computers, which use tunneling to traverse a landscape of a function to be optimized. These kind of quantum computers may be useful in the future, but they won't yield the dramatic speedup that the above type may achieve theoretically.
      Anyway, I advise anybody to not use their time and money for this pipe dream.
