Quantum computing is just the observed movement of an electron through a quantum stated material… depending on the dimensionality of the quantum state used: you can reduce the time it takes to complete an action in the transistor well(as with each dimension reduction, you halve the time of wave response; all the way to dimensional 0, which gives you an instance well response)… The idea that’s introduced at dimensional state 0(or D0), is that a computational state of each well, would natively occur when introduced to a specific request… Now if the engineers were being honest about how it actually worked: they’d they’d tell you there is no “instant response”, as you just get closer and closer to an infinite; your always limited by entry and re-entry of the election…. {if your unfamiliar with how modern chips work, you basically have numerous waves that can be added to a well, and as those waves are combined in the well, they create an amplified or non-amplified well response; if you can widen the accepted wave ranges you can level out responses and have numerous responses at different wave level interactions in a single well. The big advantage of what quantum computing will do is clean those wave length responses and allow many many more responses to occur within the same well, all with minimal distance required between the wave interactions}. It’s one of those things that could be possible, but is much less useful then you think it would be, even when it is… In the end the best use of a tech like this would be for running efficiency models… While Quantum Computing does offer an advantage over modern high-low transistor well technology: the cost to operate, and lack of efficient manufacturing processes; it just doesn’t make sense for the amount of advantage, that could be achieved for much less in other ways… Once those avenues are perused, and this is the only advantage left; it’s possible this might be a future tech that’s used… D0 systems are still a ways off though anyways…

Quantum mechanics does not prove multiverse hypothesis, the multiverse hypothesis is just a solution suggested to explain the weirdness of superpositions and collapses. Multiverse hypothesis is not based on an objective truth or testable scientific experiments. He should know better than to give such examples for a large audience, propagating myths like this is not productive.
He really doesn't seem too worried about making wild, as of yet scientifically unsubstantiated conjectures, what with the whole "we'll be able to expand human consciousness through space and time". However, I like that he's not afraid to think creatively.
Nobody understands quantum mechanics. Especially general public at TED talk. Multiverse hypothesis, on the other hand, can be explained pretty simply. So, his explanation is more than OK.
A much simpler way to describe this, instead of using a many worlds theory, would be to say there is a yes, a no and a maybe or what if state. With his three coins he could have had one on heads, another on tails and the third balancing on it's edge, ready to fall either way when interfered with.
Thanks. I read a book about fuzzy logic where instead of 0 or 1, it was a decimal less than 1. Would that be similar? Or just the possibility of a 1 or 0?
So in that scope, all simple outcomes are "known" and observation is the outcome of where the coin falls, and since all outcomes are "known" they're are immediately accessible and do not have to be calculated. This benefit compounds as the number and complexity of operations on a qubit grows. Is that in the ballpark?
I watched a Manga film years ago and the human was fighting an AI and the view from the AI robot had every possibility the human could move on a HUDS. That's how I kind of understand quantum theory that it's every possible scenario all at the same time.
He is the first phd human I’ve heard in modern time used his own law to describe something…and he did it so modest that I had to look it up and see if he made the formula…which he did… That’s far out, cooler than cool…

I guess Nature really doesn’t care what humans think of it.
If and when the Multiverse Theory is proven and accepted, then begins the “nuts and bolts” detailed sciences of why and how nature allows this existence of multiple parallel universes. It’ll be a whole new “can of worms”, as the saying goes. Could it be that, as we probe deeper and deeper into nature, the more and more complex it gets in a quest without end? Nature may be infinitesimal and infinite. Thus, it is probably impossible for us humans to ever establish, as Einstein hoped, the ultimate fundamental laws of nature, or the ultimate “equation of everything”.
There is no evidence proving that quantum computers require parallel worlds. This video is a promotion of the 'Many Worlds' interpretation, which is just one of several interpretations of quantum mechanics.
I think concluding that superposition and quantum properties are signs of a multiverse is far-fetched. It's just that the rules governing things at that scale are different from what we experience. This doesn't necessarily imply that what we observe in the quantum world necessitates the existence of parallel universes.
That’s a fair assessment, but the many-worlds interpretation is a plausible explanation. It indeed may be the case that quantum computers are performing parallel computing in parallel universes. More likely, it’s just an apt way of describing / modeling whatever is really happening.
Seconding what the other commenter said. Personally I think many worlds sounds far fetched but makes way more sense than your traditional copenhagen interpretation. It's actually the simplest explanation of what we observe, since it doesn't impose wave function collapse. Sean Carrol advocates this argument really well
@@Michael-ul7kv I agree actually that its unlikely that "many worlds" is the right way of thinking about the entire wave function and its splitting, but I do think it's the closest thing to a philosophically sensible interpretation and the best starting point for continuing to think about foundations of qm, which has been woefully neglected for the past century
I think the issue isn’t that he’s presenting the multiverse hypothesis at all, but that he’s presenting it to the public who doesn’t have the information he does. Sure, it might be a useful model, but presumably nobody in the audience understands what’s flawed with this model because he’s presenting it so confidently as fact
the processing happens in extra dimensions of spacetime, think of it like a classic mult-thread CPU only those threads are actually extra dimensions of spacetime.
While the existence of the multiverse is unproven and probably unprovable I learned it to be a great way of explaining things at a popular science level. Computer architecture has always been my thing. And so has physics been, so quantum computers are just the next crazy thing I'd love to work on.
We may not be able to prove the multiverse theory, but when he mentions a "parallel" universe i believe he's referring to the duality of this universe that we're experiencing today. Our universe is technically two realities, and could potentially be conjoined in a state of superposition with equipment like this. We harvest anti-matter, and the existence of anti-matter is sufficient evidence of a parallel universe that's made up entirely of anti-matter.
I'm both enamored and terrified of what these machines will be capable of. I wish Turing, Bohr, Einstein, and Oppenheimer were here to see this. They would be so proud.
@0:40 "Where does this superpower come from? Quantum computer is the first technology that takes the idea serious that we live in a multiverse. It can be seen as farming out computations to parallel universes." This is David Deutsch's idea !! in his book "The Fabric of Reality".

Imagine being able to deliver individual cure if Quantum computers live upto it's promise. I don't understand a word he said, but I can sense the step is in the right direction.
As a IT Engineer the best and easiest way to describe this is when you use ChatGPT for example someone says “How in the world does it know that and return results so fast?” It pulls data from machine learning with insane processing. Qbits are like TB but on steroids. Take quantum computing and apply that same logic. Insane fast results with massive (I’m talking massive) computing power. Multiverse and wormholes I have no clue on and how they can tell. It’s actually crazy the amount of computing power it has. What it’s being used for I have no idea. You could probably solve insane mathematical things, perhaps cancer cures, etc but that would mean less money for healthcare industry. My guess is this will be under lock and key and only used for specific projects, sadly
I imagine it’ll start amazing. Solving many of mankind’s problems. Then as the AI becomes self aware, it realizes quickly that mankind is dangerous. It then becomes Skynet. /s
On one hand, he is going for the technical aspects of what Quantum Computing looks like. But I just want to point out...that the best analogy I can give to simplify the advantage of such a computer..think of it this way..Everything our current computers do requires some kind of bandwith of data that is usually distributed across a bus..(a bank of circuit lines set aside for a specific purpose. Like a RAM bus, or I/O bus). Buses get bigger every few generations of computers to handle more data going back and forth in the computer. A single bus can have 64, 128, 256 lanes or more to accomodate all of the digital 1's and 0's passing through them. Like lanes of a highway. Imagine if your local highway had 128 lanes to accommodate all of the traffic driving on it. Now, with q-bits in quantum mechanics, the "1"'s and "0"s are replaced with 0-10*x^27 or something like that as a single digit. Suddenly, all of the traffic in the 128 lane highway fits into a single lane, and there is still a LOT more room for cars before you'd need to create a second lane. Like every car on the planet and THEN a lot more could fit in that lane. And the thing is. because its actually a single "digit" on that quantum board, it doesn't take any longer for a digit of any value of that q-bit to reach the end of its trip. If you put a large number in a standard computer, it takes several clock cycles to fully move that information to the next part of the circuit. In a quantum computer, moving a number that fits in that q-bit range only takes....one clock cycle. Can you imagine how fast those computers will be when they finally start doing practical things? We might actually have to purposely slow the user interface portions of the computer down to make it even usable by humans.
Looks like Skynet is almost here 😀 With these advancements so far, this computer could calculate its own redesign and finish the final four steps in no time. Computers have come a long way, especially since my first computer was an Atari 800XL and a model 1050 5 1/4 inch floppy drive 41 years ago. I still have it, and it still works!
This was highly interesting, and I enjoyed how he broke it down for the audience. On a side note can I say this gentleman looks like the German version of Bryan Cranston?
04:10 finding one item in a DB of four cannot be done with one call in traditional instances? How is this meant? It is one query. It is quite strangely worded when referring to the search algorithm behind it. "In a database of four?" Sorry .. it is Big O root of n on average .. so could be 50% of cases 2 calls ... ah he meant Iterative Amplification and then it highlights within the superimposition the one state with high prob. yeah that is then 1.23 iterations , so 1 enough?
For me the Grover Algorithm is like a parallel suspect line: parallel witness checking all suspects simultaneously, where each suspect reacts to the witness's criteria without direct marking. With each iteration, the suspect matching the criteria becomes more prominent, while others feel increasingly overlooked. This repeated process makes the correct suspect stand out more, ensuring they are identified with high probability in the final check .... probably more complicated in the setup with the Repetition of Oracle and Diffusion but for me it helped getting the rough idea understood.
So the key is to have an insane ammount of storage space, full of data, that was translated from text to algorithm... and then to code. Then, run that through a processor, which has inputs from the user, to achieve different tasks. And all that funnels into a display, which can show images of data that has been quantized. That's the most basic setup. Then the next logical step, is to add machine learning to the storage unit, to further integrate whats been stored. Then, youd start feeding more information into the storage unit, for more abilities on the processing and display side. And forget computer code. The best way is to create algorithms that can translate speech and text, into the computers own language.
I would like to see the brute forcing capability of the QC against the current 256Bit encryption. Now he said the processing power is 1 Billion times more at the currect phase and here is a quote "AES-256 encryption is virtually uncrackable using any brute-force method. It would take millions of years to break it using the current computing technology and capabilities." My math may not be on par with this guy but I think he said he can brute force the AES-256 in 0.365 days... thats 8.76 hours... so a lack of how many millions of years is the unknown in this equation. Am I wrong here? And we are talking phase 2...
How do you reconcile a 1 in 1,000 error rate with the ability to solve a computation that would take a billion years for a classical computer to complete. Doesn't that mean the answer the quantum computer comes to is inevitably wrong? How would you even check if the answer is right?
Many people actually refute the suggestion that they actual computation that they did would take 1 B years for today's fastest super computer to do. It's above my pay grade to explain it, but I have read a lot from reputable sources that their claim is not correct.
They are very specific types of computations. I don't really remember which ones, but it's not like a quantum computer could play gta 5 10000x faster just because it is quantum. The normal computer is a car, while the quantum computer is a boat. They transport you from place to place, but they're fundamentally different.
The first problem is that companies are spending billions trying to make quantum computing work, only to back off because it’s too expensive. Instead, we should invest that money in educating the 8 billion minds around the world. Minds are priceless, each with trillions of connections.
“Parallel worlds” is more of an analogy in this scenario. We are not actually exploiting other worlds to do computations, but we are doing something similar. Quantum computers can essentially evaluate multiple different possibilities at the same time, collapsing them into a single result.
Yes, ignore the other commenter. What you said is exactly right. The quantum computer is running in many different worlds. Then at the end of the computation, those worlds merge into 1, through a process called interference.
So is QC just replacing current physical silicon/electricity computation with wave conversion of the same threads, thereby allowing almost limitless computation in a short time since you’re not bound by physical elements?
The fact that gold, when it is in a monatomic state, can achieve superconductivity at room temperature makes me wonder why nobody has attempted to design a quantum computer that utilizes that instead of using the supercooling method which I would think actually ends up costing more in the long run. Of course I imagine it would be difficult to figure out how much monatomic gold it would require. It might end up being cost prohibitive. However there are more ways of obtaining monatomic gold aside from just using gold leaf and transforming it into monatomic powder through a chemical reaction. It can actually be harvested in nature via several methods. Though it could create a possible purity issue.
Incredible is an understanding. Revolutionary may be the only word to describe this advancement. And at what a time, when humanity faces its greatest crises of extinction through global warming. Here’s to hope, growth, and human advancement ✊🏽💪🙏
My basic understanding has been that surfing the multiverse gives the illusion of free will and is the basis of consciousness. Glad to hear that Hartmut Neven had a similar thought. Would love to learn more. I marvel at what leap someone had to have to harness the multiverse in computing. Does it mean that there are a huge number of quantum computers in "many worlds" running the program in parallel? Once a reality splits off from this parallel path do we loose connection to that machine, or is that how the probability is calculated?
This many worlds or multiverse interpretation of quantum mechanics is not even testable or provable in any way. I really don't like how he wasn't more clear about his use of metaphors, especially with such a large audience. Additionally quantum computers are not normal computers which can run a lot of things in parallel, these things exist already. Quantum computers work fundamentally different and the "parallelization" happening in them is completely different from traditional parallelization.
@@lucasinatur Lucas, I am an artist, one who wanders the labyrinth of scientific discovery, embracing my peculiar nature. As an artist, I strive to decipher the intricate patterns woven into the fabric of what I read. For a scientist, the multiverse theory may hold little utility, for it stretches beyond the confines of our testable reality. This boundary marks the edge of hypotheses, a threshold many are content to honor. I understand and respect this devotion to empirical rigor. Yet, as an artist, I am liberated from the shackles of the provable. My imagination embarks on daring voyages through realms of "what if," enthralled by the boundless expanse of possibilities. Scientists unveil their finest theories, and my mind dances with these concepts until they spark a revelation. Much of it is fantasy but that's ok for me.
It feels like we are building the basic tools (AGI, quantum computing power) which will ultimately allow us to understand the answer to these questions. Feels like the human brain alone can't explain them since the brain is just a consequence of the system.
So all in all, what I’m gaining from this is that Quantum Computing is almost essential for technology, like AI and Algorithms *because of Superpositions. In simple terms, “Quantum Computers will be able to overthink and provide solutions for each overthought” But as of 2024, Quantum Computing won’t be as practical or relevant yet until we have creatives and engineers making more practical, applicable products
One of the first killer apps will be cryptography. Because QC threatens to break all current encryption within next 5 years or so, quantum-safe cryptography should grow quite rapidly. Latter requires quantum computers.
When will quantum computing move to space? What I’m referring to is the cooling issues we have on getting those computations. It’s costly to mimic deep space so why not put the computing devices in space where it’s almost below kelvin already and receive those computations on earth.
Decoherence is the chief issue to deal with. Entangled qubits tend to decohere for multiple reasons, limiting the number of computational steps that can be completed before decoherence ruins the calculation.
I'm no expert but i'm pretty sure it's "thing is in multiple states at once" not "the multiverse is real and there is another version of this room where we are sitting in a different order"
Cool stuff. The qpc computes the equation in multiverses simultaneously to achieve the result faster. Sort like how Naruto clones himself 100 times to achieve a task very quickly.
I'm not very familiar with quantum computing, but is it generally expected in the field that it will follow the pattern of progress observed with conventional computing re: Moore's Law?
Moore's law is a trend. QC is bound by physics and if Google decides it's to much of that 90 billion of juicy revenue it makes. Progress could easily slow down.
Not at all. It was relatively easy to keep making smaller and smaller transistors just by making better lithography equipment and nothing else. Quantum computers start from the beginning with the smallest particles, and that comes with inherent problems like noise, interference, isolation, which at the moment all require very elaborate support system like cryogenics cooling.
I guess i could simplify it as a Much Much Faster Computer that requires alot of power to sustain but it will help Expand and speed up our creative process. ❤️🌹❤️

Thus, it is probably impossible for us humans to ever establish, as Einstein hoped, the ultimate fundamental laws of nature, or the ultimate “equation of everything”.
0 understanding but 100 curiosity 😂
How binary of you!
It’s all right they are still trying to find something useful to do with it
Everyone starts somewhere!
The same
There is no evidence proving that quantum computers require parallel worlds.
This video is a promotion of the 'Many Worlds' interpretation, which is just one of several interpretations of quantum mechanics.
Nurse Practitioner here... wow! Wheels in brain rapidly turning! The applications in healthcare are immeasurable! Awesome! Thanks for what you do

Yes, it is pretty good marketing.
It's simultaneously cutting edge science and complete bs marketing. Quantum science
I think concluding that superposition and quantum properties are signs of a multiverse is far-fetched. It's just that the rules governing things at that scale are different from what we experience. This doesn't necessarily imply that what we observe in the quantum world necessitates the existence of parallel universes.
That’s a fair assessment, but the many-worlds interpretation is a plausible explanation. It indeed may be the case that quantum computers are performing parallel computing in parallel universes. More likely, it’s just an apt way of describing / modeling whatever is really happening.
Seconding what the other commenter said. Personally I think many worlds sounds far fetched but makes way more sense than your traditional copenhagen interpretation. It's actually the simplest explanation of what we observe, since it doesn't impose wave function collapse. Sean Carrol advocates this argument really well
Very far-fetched
@@Michael-ul7kv I agree actually that its unlikely that "many worlds" is the right way of thinking about the entire wave function and its splitting, but I do think it's the closest thing to a philosophically sensible interpretation and the best starting point for continuing to think about foundations of qm, which has been woefully neglected for the past century
I think the issue isn’t that he’s presenting the multiverse hypothesis at all, but that he’s presenting it to the public who doesn’t have the information he does. Sure, it might be a useful model, but presumably nobody in the audience understands what’s flawed with this model because he’s presenting it so confidently as fact
Wow it's Dr. Emmet from back to the future - life this guy and his style and knowledge
And this was the easy way to explain it? Maybe in another multiverse 😊
the processing happens in extra dimensions of spacetime, think of it like a classic mult-thread CPU only those threads are actually extra dimensions of spacetime.
@@joeloiacono8850your explanation doesn’t help. Explain it to us like we’re 10 lol
While the existence of the multiverse is unproven and probably unprovable I learned it to be a great way of explaining things at a popular science level.
Computer architecture has always been my thing. And so has physics been, so quantum computers are just the next crazy thing I'd love to work on.

We may not be able to prove the multiverse theory, but when he mentions a "parallel" universe i believe he's referring to the duality of this universe that we're experiencing today. Our universe is technically two realities, and could potentially be conjoined in a state of superposition with equipment like this.
We harvest anti-matter, and the existence of anti-matter is sufficient evidence of a parallel universe that's made up entirely of anti-matter.
I'm both enamored and terrified of what these machines will be capable of. I wish Turing, Bohr, Einstein, and Oppenheimer were here to see this. They would be so proud.
@0:40 "Where does this superpower come from? Quantum computer is the first technology that takes the idea serious that we live in a multiverse. It can be seen as farming out computations to parallel universes." This is David Deutsch's idea !! in his book "The Fabric of Reality".
Bet that is the first and last time that dude will touch something as mundane as a quarter in a long, long time.
Mindblowing. Great video thanks Hartmut, TED

Absolutely fascinating! Great video!
Imagine being able to deliver individual cure if Quantum computers live upto it's promise. I don't understand a word he said, but I can sense the step is in the right direction.
As a IT Engineer the best and easiest way to describe this is when you use ChatGPT for example someone says “How in the world does it know that and return results so fast?” It pulls data from machine learning with insane processing. Qbits are like TB but on steroids. Take quantum computing and apply that same logic. Insane fast results with massive (I’m talking massive) computing power. Multiverse and wormholes I have no clue on and how they can tell. It’s actually crazy the amount of computing power it has. What it’s being used for I have no idea. You could probably solve insane mathematical things, perhaps cancer cures, etc but that would mean less money for healthcare industry. My guess is this will be under lock and key and only used for specific projects, sadly
Now I want a 'Time Crystal ' :P
Walmart has them for $12.97
Can't wait to see what's possible with quantum AI
Teleportation and holodeck from star trek
Me too. The OTT hype potential will be incredible!
What are some examples?
That's nothing. If you also use cold fusion and cyber genetic blockchains, you will get millions (of investment money).
I imagine it’ll start amazing. Solving many of mankind’s problems. Then as the AI becomes self aware, it realizes quickly that mankind is dangerous. It then becomes Skynet. /s
On one hand, he is going for the technical aspects of what Quantum Computing looks like. But I just want to point out...that the best analogy I can give to simplify the advantage of such a computer..think of it this way..Everything our current computers do requires some kind of bandwith of data that is usually distributed across a bus..(a bank of circuit lines set aside for a specific purpose. Like a RAM bus, or I/O bus). Buses get bigger every few generations of computers to handle more data going back and forth in the computer. A single bus can have 64, 128, 256 lanes or more to accomodate all of the digital 1's and 0's passing through them. Like lanes of a highway. Imagine if your local highway had 128 lanes to accommodate all of the traffic driving on it. Now, with q-bits in quantum mechanics, the "1"'s and "0"s are replaced with 0-10*x^27 or something like that as a single digit. Suddenly, all of the traffic in the 128 lane highway fits into a single lane, and there is still a LOT more room for cars before you'd need to create a second lane. Like every car on the planet and THEN a lot more could fit in that lane. And the thing is. because its actually a single "digit" on that quantum board, it doesn't take any longer for a digit of any value of that q-bit to reach the end of its trip. If you put a large number in a standard computer, it takes several clock cycles to fully move that information to the next part of the circuit. In a quantum computer, moving a number that fits in that q-bit range only takes....one clock cycle. Can you imagine how fast those computers will be when they finally start doing practical things? We might actually have to purposely slow the user interface portions of the computer down to make it even usable by humans.
"Neven's Law" this man quoting his own law 😂
My dawg's shades are fire 🔥🔥😎 😭🔥
Thank you for this lecture.
Now I know how to use my own quantum computer.
Fantastic. Bravo! 🎉
Looks like Skynet is almost here 😀 With these advancements so far, this computer could calculate its own redesign and finish the final four steps in no time. Computers have come a long way, especially since my first computer was an Atari 800XL and a model 1050 5 1/4 inch floppy drive 41 years ago. I still have it, and it still works!
I couldn't help but notice how the conversion of traditional compute to quantum (waves) looked very similar to brain waves. In particular theta waves.
The day Google is reading your bloodsugar and smelling your food we are doomed.
He just talked about potentially expanding your consciousness through spacetime and you're worried about glucose meters?
This was highly interesting, and I enjoyed how he broke it down for the audience. On a side note can I say this gentleman looks like the German version of Bryan Cranston?
04:10 finding one item in a DB of four cannot be done with one call in traditional instances? How is this meant? It is one query. It is quite strangely worded when referring to the search algorithm behind it. "In a database of four?" Sorry .. it is Big O root of n on average .. so could be 50% of cases 2 calls ... ah he meant Iterative Amplification and then it highlights within the superimposition the one state with high prob. yeah that is then 1.23 iterations , so 1 enough?
For me the Grover Algorithm is like a parallel suspect line: parallel witness checking all suspects simultaneously, where each suspect reacts to the witness's criteria without direct marking. With each iteration, the suspect matching the criteria becomes more prominent, while others feel increasingly overlooked. This repeated process makes the correct suspect stand out more, ensuring they are identified with high probability in the final check .... probably more complicated in the setup with the Repetition of Oracle and Diffusion but for me it helped getting the rough idea understood.
Great presentation!
Excellent work sir
Is there a parallel universe where he doesn't have his sun glasses on his head while giving this talk because it would be less distracting.
Not sure what you dislike about that. It's a part of his style, he wants it, he wears it.
I hope there should be a parallel universe where you are listening his words rather then watching his glasses
I hope there is a parallel universe where I don’t read this obnoxious comment 🚮

No more encryption for banks, bitcoin, or information. Is what this means. We have to innovative these things first. Idk why nobody mentions this

So the key is to have an insane ammount of storage space, full of data, that was translated from text to algorithm... and then to code.
Then, run that through a processor, which has inputs from the user, to achieve different tasks.
And all that funnels into a display, which can show images of data that has been quantized.
That's the most basic setup.
Then the next logical step, is to add machine learning to the storage unit, to further integrate whats been stored.
Then, youd start feeding more information into the storage unit, for more abilities on the processing and display side.
And forget computer code.
The best way is to create algorithms that can translate speech and text, into the computers own language.
I would like to see the brute forcing capability of the QC against the current 256Bit encryption. Now he said the processing power is 1 Billion times more at the currect phase and here is a quote "AES-256 encryption is virtually uncrackable using any brute-force method. It would take millions of years to break it using the current computing technology and capabilities."
My math may not be on par with this guy but I think he said he can brute force the AES-256 in 0.365 days... thats 8.76 hours... so a lack of how many millions of years is the unknown in this equation.
Am I wrong here? And we are talking phase 2...
How do you reconcile a 1 in 1,000 error rate with the ability to solve a computation that would take a billion years for a classical computer to complete. Doesn't that mean the answer the quantum computer comes to is inevitably wrong? How would you even check if the answer is right?
Does anyone know what the big step in optimization using Quantum computers is
?
Quantum computer, can give you an answer to a yes or no question, and every answer in-between. Extraordinary.
actually, is more like explore all the posible path's of a labyrinth at the same time...
That isn't it at all.
All learning aside, this guy is too fly! Great outfit & great style, while also being a complete genius!
Many people actually refute the suggestion that they actual computation that they did would take 1 B years for today's fastest super computer to do. It's above my pay grade to explain it, but I have read a lot from reputable sources that their claim is not correct.
They are very specific types of computations. I don't really remember which ones, but it's not like a quantum computer could play gta 5 10000x faster just because it is quantum. The normal computer is a car, while the quantum computer is a boat. They transport you from place to place, but they're fundamentally different.
The first problem is that companies are spending billions trying to make quantum computing work, only to back off because it’s too expensive. Instead, we should invest that money in educating the 8 billion minds around the world. Minds are priceless, each with trillions of connections.
If we are exploiting parallell worlds to do quantum computation, does that mean that those worlds also have a quantum computer doing the same thing?
“Parallel worlds” is more of an analogy in this scenario. We are not actually exploiting other worlds to do computations, but we are doing something similar. Quantum computers can essentially evaluate multiple different possibilities at the same time, collapsing them into a single result.
Yes, ignore the other commenter. What you said is exactly right. The quantum computer is running in many different worlds. Then at the end of the computation, those worlds merge into 1, through a process called interference.
I couldnt imagine being the lead of a bleeding edge field as this. Mapping consciousness? this is wild
That consciousness phenomenon just grabbed me ;so we do live in multiverse but my brain is just configured for omniverse!?
Thermodynamics 5th law: "The world is shifting from reality to irreality."
So is QC just replacing current physical silicon/electricity computation with wave conversion of the same threads, thereby allowing almost limitless computation in a short time since you’re not bound by physical elements?
So, what are the practical applications?
The fact that gold, when it is in a monatomic state, can achieve superconductivity at room temperature makes me wonder why nobody has attempted to design a quantum computer that utilizes that instead of using the supercooling method which I would think actually ends up costing more in the long run. Of course I imagine it would be difficult to figure out how much monatomic gold it would require. It might end up being cost prohibitive. However there are more ways of obtaining monatomic gold aside from just using gold leaf and transforming it into monatomic powder through a chemical reaction. It can actually be harvested in nature via several methods. Though it could create a possible purity issue.
Incredible is an understanding. Revolutionary may be the only word to describe this advancement. And at what a time, when humanity faces its greatest crises of extinction through global warming. Here’s to hope, growth, and human advancement ✊🏽💪🙏

Don’t forget about cryptography! Being able to factor integers or computer discrete logarithms instantly breaks many commonly used crypto systems.
Fully, the first real example of quantum computing may be to hack crypto.
My basic understanding has been that surfing the multiverse gives the illusion of free will and is the basis of consciousness. Glad to hear that Hartmut Neven had a similar thought. Would love to learn more. I marvel at what leap someone had to have to harness the multiverse in computing. Does it mean that there are a huge number of quantum computers in "many worlds" running the program in parallel? Once a reality splits off from this parallel path do we loose connection to that machine, or is that how the probability is calculated?
This many worlds or multiverse interpretation of quantum mechanics is not even testable or provable in any way. I really don't like how he wasn't more clear about his use of metaphors, especially with such a large audience.
Additionally quantum computers are not normal computers which can run a lot of things in parallel, these things exist already. Quantum computers work fundamentally different and the "parallelization" happening in them is completely different from traditional parallelization.
@@lucasinatur Lucas,
I am an artist, one who wanders the labyrinth of scientific discovery, embracing my peculiar nature. As an artist, I strive to decipher the intricate patterns woven into the fabric of what I read. For a scientist, the multiverse theory may hold little utility, for it stretches beyond the confines of our testable reality. This boundary marks the edge of hypotheses, a threshold many are content to honor. I understand and respect this devotion to empirical rigor.
Yet, as an artist, I am liberated from the shackles of the provable. My imagination embarks on daring voyages through realms of "what if," enthralled by the boundless expanse of possibilities. Scientists unveil their finest theories, and my mind dances with these concepts until they spark a revelation.
Much of it is fantasy but that's ok for me.
Love this guys style!!!!
It feels like we are building the basic tools (AGI, quantum computing power) which will ultimately allow us to understand the answer to these questions. Feels like the human brain alone can't explain them since the brain is just a consequence of the system.
So all in all, what I’m gaining from this is that Quantum Computing is almost essential for technology, like AI and Algorithms *because of Superpositions. In simple terms, “Quantum Computers will be able to overthink and provide solutions for each overthought”
But as of 2024, Quantum Computing won’t be as practical or relevant yet until we have creatives and engineers making more practical, applicable products
One of the first killer apps will be cryptography. Because QC threatens to break all current encryption within next 5 years or so, quantum-safe cryptography should grow quite rapidly. Latter requires quantum computers.
When will quantum computing move to space? What I’m referring to is the cooling issues we have on getting those computations. It’s costly to mimic deep space so why not put the computing devices in space where it’s almost below kelvin already and receive those computations on earth.
My Quantum computing knowledge is this: Quantum Leap was a great TV show.
Ted's videos are the most informative and excellent ones
Yeah but sometimes a video ends and I can’t remember what I learned Loll
Fascinating: What are the biggest challenges to building a large-scale quantum computer?
Decoherence is the chief issue to deal with. Entangled qubits tend to decohere for multiple reasons, limiting the number of computational steps that can be completed before decoherence ruins the calculation.

Thank you! That's enlightening.
Any breakthroughs made by quantum computers so far? Anybody please.
I'm no expert but i'm pretty sure it's "thing is in multiple states at once" not "the multiverse is real and there is another version of this room where we are sitting in a different order"
Cool stuff. The qpc computes the equation in multiverses simultaneously to achieve the result faster. Sort like how Naruto clones himself 100 times to achieve a task very quickly.

I'm not very familiar with quantum computing, but is it generally expected in the field that it will follow the pattern of progress observed with conventional computing re: Moore's Law?
Moore's law is a trend. QC is bound by physics and if Google decides it's to much of that 90 billion of juicy revenue it makes. Progress could easily slow down.
Not at all. It was relatively easy to keep making smaller and smaller transistors just by making better lithography equipment and nothing else. Quantum computers start from the beginning with the smallest particles, and that comes with inherent problems like noise, interference, isolation, which at the moment all require very elaborate support system like cryogenics cooling.
Those shoes are kickin
So this guy is the main super villain in the next Bond movie right?
Well, with that sunglasses, Mr. Neven is even cooler than Quantum Computers.
What if we were not supposed to advance this much? This can be one of the possibilities to future?
I guess i could simplify it as a Much Much Faster Computer that requires alot of power to sustain but it will help Expand and speed up our creative process. ❤️🌹❤️
He’s saying the future of computers will not be around code writers, but quantum computing.
Interesting definition of consciousness .
Show some results. Just another pretty presentation.
He's just hitting all the important buzzwords and explaining nothing. As he said he has been working on Goggles Quantum computer for 12 years and basically at this point has nothing really to show.
Can someone help me understand what he meant by this? "Please note how I find one item in a database of four by only doing a single call to the database, this is something you could not do on an ordinary computer".
