    What are the quantum technologies that are now attracting so much research funding? In this video I go through the most important ones: quantum computing, quantum metrology, the quantum internet, and quantum simulations. I explain what these are all about and how likely they are to impact our lives soon. I also tell you what frequently headline blunders to watch out for.

      I do think a ONE SHOT FTL comms device is possible, but it's so ridiculously silly to implement not even hyper-advanced civilisation would use them... First you have to move a matrix of entangles particles from their co-particles... Each broken connection = 1 bit of information, and the observers at point a break a connection on the matrix which is instantly picked up the other end, signifying something the two parties have pre-agreed...
      --
      On top of this we have the digital-analogue time factor. We could have a protocol that says, break each connection every 512 Planck ticks, with an offset 0..255 Planck seconds, thus transfer 256 bits of data every 512 Planck ticks.. Like I say, the problem is, it's one shot for each entangled pair, and the device has to be transported to the location first..
      --
      depends on whether QE can REALLY be stretched and maintained over long distance... if it's only possible a short distance, as I suspect, it's a ridiculous silly thing to do.

      That's funny because there is a video about photons entanglement that uses cake bakery as a metaphor.
      It presents two cakes going out of the factory at the same time on opposite trendmills. Experimenter on each side can choose between two tests : magnesium presence and taste. One test will invalidate testing of the other.
      When one cake had magnesium, the other tasted good. In 9% of times both had magnesium. Logic tells they should be both good in at least 9% of cases. But they were never good at the same time. And this defies logic (at least in a causal, local and realist framework).
      I guess people really like cakes.

      She is a very smart lady but she is merely fairly consistent within her own discipline. Science has its limits. Science is a fabulous thing. It has benefited mankind in many ways BUT it is limited. It is based on some assumptions, conventions and just plain arbitrary conclusions that impress many scientists...but not all. Science is an evolutionary philosophy. It will viscously defend what it proclaims to be true......until some really smart person will come up with something that makes current "truth" obsolete! Copernicus did that. Newton did that, as did Einstein and Hawking, and so forth. They blew things up! Some of them even said they maid boo boos! Einstein did. Sow did Hawking.
      Don't get me wrong. Science has come a long way, we are greatly blessed/benefited by it. However, our "knowledge" is limited and sometimes way off. My concern is when science becomes arrogant with some of its declarations. My favorite example is where the _consensus_ of scientific thought is when the Big Bang Theory is presented as dogmatic truth. It isn't. In fact, it carries many contradictions. I won't get into that here. My point is that there are many scientists that disagree with many, and some times, all points with the Big Bang Theory. In the popular science community they are neglected or even ignored. That's my problem.
      Now Sabine is a very smart lady. She has a knack for explaining things. But, sometimes she is off. I will not say she is off about the Quantum thing in this video. I'm just making a general statement...in general...generally, speaking!
      When ANYONE dismissively says something is nonsense red flags fly. To me it is arrogant. All she is saying is that she disagrees, but arrogantly. Not good.
      Sabine isn't "eviscerating" anyone. She is merely disagreeing. Careful!

      THE ULTIMATE AND CLEAR MATHEMATICAL PROOF OF THE FACT THAT E=MC2 IS F=MA:
      Ultimately and truly, TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. SO, time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. A PHOTON may be placed at the center of THE SUN (as A POINT, of course), AS the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the SPEED OF LIGHT; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. Great !!! "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. E=MC2 IS F=MA.
      Consider the man who IS standing on what is the EARTH/ground. Touch AND feeling BLEND, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity; as E=mc2 IS F=ma. GREAT !!!
      E=mc2 IS F=ma. The linked AND BALANCED opposite of what is THE SUN is A POINT in the night sky. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. A PHOTON may be placed at the center of THE SUN (as A POINT, of course), AS the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the SPEED OF LIGHT; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. Therefore, the linked AND BALANCED opposite of what is THE EARTH is ALSO A POINT in the night sky. Great. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. E=mc2 IS F=ma.
      Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Accordingly, the Earth AND the Sun are linked AND BALANCED opposites; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Great !!!!!! Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. E=MC2 IS F=MA.
      The EARTH and the SUN thus constitute and comprise what are the MIDDLE AND THE FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE (IN BALANCE) in full and BALANCED compliance and conformity with the CLEAR and universal fact that E=mc2 IS F=ma, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Great !!!! It ALL CLEARLY does make perfect sense. (The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky.) INDEED, BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. Now, very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. Great.
      NOW, OVERLAY what is THE EYE in BALANCED RELATION to/WITH what is THE EARTH. Notice the black space of THE EYE. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. THE DOME of a person's EYE is ALSO VISIBLE. Now, carefully consider what is the semi-spherical, translucent, QUANTUM GRAVITATIONAL, AND BLUE SKY. Great. E=mc2 IS F=ma. It is CLEAR. THE EARTH is ALSO BLUE (AS WATER). GREAT. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy.
      INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience, as E=mc2 IS F=ma; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE is proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) GRAVITATIONAL force/energy, as this unifies AND balances gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy; as this balances gravity AND inertia. (This clearly explains BOTH F=ma AND E=mc2, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY !!!) ACCORDINGLY, gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. SO, the BALANCE of being AND EXPERIENCE is essential; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma.
      Our EXPERIENCE is NECESSARILY that of what is the FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE, AS we are BALANCED between what are THE SUN AND c (A POINT); AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. SO, a given PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) sweeps out equal areas in equal times; AND this is THEN consistent WITH/as F=ma, E=mc2, AND what is perpetual motion; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. E=mc2 IS F=ma. BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. It ALL CLEARLY does make perfect sense. THINK about what is QUANTUM GRAVITY.
      "Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/as what is BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Indeed, gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Therefore, the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON matches it's revolution !!! Objects fall at the SAME RATE (neglecting air resistance, of course), AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Gravitational force/ENERGY is proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY.
      Stellar clustering ALSO proves ON BALANCE that ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. Magnificent !!!
      E=mc2 IS F=ma. Is a two dimensional surface or SPACE visible or invisible ? The answer is that it is BOTH. So, the electron AND photon are structureless. A PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) is a balanced MIDDLE DISTANCE form in relation to E=mc2 AS F=ma. A PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) is a balanced MIDDLE DISTANCE form in relation to the Sun AND c (A POINT). The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. E=MC2 IS F=MA. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand. Very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. E=MC2 IS F=MA. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense.
      The BALANCE of being AND EXPERIENCE is essential. The INTEGRATED EXTENSIVENESS of THOUGHT (AND description) is improved in the truly superior mind. INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience. (THOUGHTS ARE INVISIBLE.) It is a very great truth that THE SELF represents, FORMS, and experiences a COMPREHENSIVE approximation of experience in general by combining conscious and unconscious experience. MOREOVER, the ability of THOUGHT to DESCRIBE OR RECONFIGURE sensory experience is ULTIMATELY dependent upon the extent to which THOUGHT IS SIMILAR TO sensory experience. Beautiful. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. E=mc2 IS F=ma.

      WHY HABITUAL AND SELFISH LIARS SUCH AS BRIAN GREENE, SABINE HOSSENFELDER, AND DAVID SPERGEL ARE PART OF A MUCH WIDER AND SINISTER NIGHTMARE THAT IS RAPIDLY UNFOLDING:
      We always begin with typical, common, and ordinary experience in establishing physical FUNDAMENTALS/truths. LIFE is about living. TEACH REAL PHYSICS. E=mc2 IS F=ma. The truth is the way. BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand.
      Modern physics is BIG BUSINESS that is far more concerned with making money than it is with making sense and TRULY helping people IN GENERAL. THINK. They have their business equipment (telescopes, rockets, war making/destructive devices, nuclear power, nuclear pollution/waste, particle colliders, satellites, microscopes, etc.) and their other business practices (e.g., courses, books, tuition, "peer" "review") that they use to "corner the market" on what they then sell and present to you as legitimate and "ESSENTIAL" business products and "truths". They make ENORMOUS amounts of MONEY by changing experience from what is natural. In other words, to a very disturbing and significant extent, they are FABRICATING reality and the "truth" along with it. HOWEVER, TRUTH, reality, AND nature/natural experience go hand in hand. FACT. Indeed, if we walk away from reality, reality walks away from us. (STOP watching television.) In fact, the big picture is ESSENTIAL. It is called having common sense. The INTEGRATED EXTENSIVENESS of THOUGHT (AND description) is improved in the truly superior mind.
      INDEED, the big question is who is TRULY and actually "BENEFITTING" from all of this; and for what reasons? For example, are our tax dollars actually being utilized WISELY? Indeed, is being a BILLIONAIRE actually and truly representative or constitutive of philanthropy !!? NO, IT IS NOT.
      Climate change/environmental destruction IS VERY REAL, and it is absolutely catastrophic.
      Stop the rip-offs, the lies/liars, the delusional nonsense, the speculative fantasies, wasteful environmental destruction, the fear mongering, the escapist hysteria, the clowning around, and OUR BEING DELIBERATELY AND DECEITFULLY DUMBED DOWN REGARDING WHAT IS OUR PRECIOUS AND TRULY PRICELESS PHYSICS/PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE.

    Very useful video. There is a slight issue wit the quantum internet section however. When stating that the "quantum internet would be safe from quantum computers", meaning quantum key distribution (QDK) would be, this is not a complete picture. QDK is an unauthenticated protocol. In order to attain what's usually undestood as "security" on the internet (say, what TLS gives you), a post-quantum signature scheme would still be required. Therefore the quantum internet will still need some form of post-quantum cryptography even in the best case, as far as it is currently understood. Not to talk about the huge scalability issues of having to re-deploy an entire world communication infrastructure, which is also conveniently not mentioned explicitly by many of the people working on QDK. There's more important things to spend public funds on than this.

      Five gives you 5 million billion trillion that one day some chap will boldly assert that in fact however valid that tiny mice theory of matter may be, in fact those tiny mice are themselves composed of even tinier rabbits, themselves composed of remarkably small hedgehogs, and no doubt everyone nod their heads sagely and say: " of course, now why didn't we think of that in the first place?"

Quantum mechanically this positive energy statement is allowed to be inflinged during the Quantum uncertainty period. This may generate spontaneous wormholes at the Planck scale. Anyway there aren't absolute claims of what is good or bad Science. There are well or not well done inquiries. Science has not a Pope who tell what is correct or incorrect.

    Thx for this perspective. I always had an inkling that there was a fair bit of hyperbole going on in the quantum computing articles in the media. Especially considering the hardware requirements (intense cooling, “noise” sensitivity of the qbits etc.) I always thought to my self: "How do you scale this?"
    I think, the true use of quantum computing is not it's overall "power" but it's specialization to model things that would be too hard to capture with classical computing. I fail to see however, why all our mundane applications (like office stuff, games etc.) should be expected to run on quantum computers anytime soon. Because that would be woefully over-engineered and seem like a re-invention of the wheel.

      Hossenfelder is knowingly and deceitfully lying about physics.
      THE ULTIMATE AND CLEAR MATHEMATICAL PROOF OF THE FACT THAT E=MC2 IS F=MA:
      Ultimately and truly, TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. SO, time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. A PHOTON may be placed at the center of THE SUN (as A POINT, of course), AS the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the SPEED OF LIGHT; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. Great !!! "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. E=MC2 IS F=MA.
      Consider the man who IS standing on what is the EARTH/ground. Touch AND feeling BLEND, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity; as E=mc2 IS F=ma. GREAT !!!
      E=mc2 IS F=ma. The linked AND BALANCED opposite of what is THE SUN is A POINT in the night sky. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. A PHOTON may be placed at the center of THE SUN (as A POINT, of course), AS the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the SPEED OF LIGHT; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. Therefore, the linked AND BALANCED opposite of what is THE EARTH is ALSO A POINT in the night sky. Great. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. E=mc2 IS F=ma.
      Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Accordingly, the Earth AND the Sun are linked AND BALANCED opposites; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Great !!!!!! Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. E=MC2 IS F=MA.
      The EARTH and the SUN thus constitute and comprise what are the MIDDLE AND THE FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE (IN BALANCE) in full and BALANCED compliance and conformity with the CLEAR and universal fact that E=mc2 IS F=ma, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Great !!!! It ALL CLEARLY does make perfect sense. (The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky.) INDEED, BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. Now, very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. Great.
      NOW, OVERLAY what is THE EYE in BALANCED RELATION to/WITH what is THE EARTH. Notice the black space of THE EYE. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. THE DOME of a person's EYE is ALSO VISIBLE. Now, carefully consider what is the semi-spherical, translucent, QUANTUM GRAVITATIONAL, AND BLUE SKY. Great. E=mc2 IS F=ma. It is CLEAR. THE EARTH is ALSO BLUE (AS WATER). GREAT. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy.
      INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience, as E=mc2 IS F=ma; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE is proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) GRAVITATIONAL force/energy, as this unifies AND balances gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy; as this balances gravity AND inertia. (This clearly explains BOTH F=ma AND E=mc2, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY !!!) ACCORDINGLY, gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. SO, the BALANCE of being AND EXPERIENCE is essential; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma.
      Our EXPERIENCE is NECESSARILY that of what is the FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE, AS we are BALANCED between what are THE SUN AND c (A POINT); AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. SO, a given PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) sweeps out equal areas in equal times; AND this is THEN consistent WITH/as F=ma, E=mc2, AND what is perpetual motion; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. E=mc2 IS F=ma. BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. It ALL CLEARLY does make perfect sense. THINK about what is QUANTUM GRAVITY.
      "Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/as what is BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Indeed, gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Therefore, the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON matches it's revolution !!! Objects fall at the SAME RATE (neglecting air resistance, of course), AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Gravitational force/ENERGY is proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY.
      Stellar clustering ALSO proves ON BALANCE that ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. Magnificent !!!
      E=mc2 IS F=ma. Is a two dimensional surface or SPACE visible or invisible ? The answer is that it is BOTH. So, the electron AND photon are structureless. A PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) is a balanced MIDDLE DISTANCE form in relation to E=mc2 AS F=ma. A PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) is a balanced MIDDLE DISTANCE form in relation to the Sun AND c (A POINT). The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. E=MC2 IS F=MA. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand. Very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. E=MC2 IS F=MA. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense.
      The BALANCE of being AND EXPERIENCE is essential. The INTEGRATED EXTENSIVENESS of THOUGHT (AND description) is improved in the truly superior mind. INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience. (THOUGHTS ARE INVISIBLE.) It is a very great truth that THE SELF represents, FORMS, and experiences a COMPREHENSIVE approximation of experience in general by combining conscious and unconscious experience. MOREOVER, the ability of THOUGHT to DESCRIBE OR RECONFIGURE sensory experience is ULTIMATELY dependent upon the extent to which THOUGHT IS SIMILAR TO sensory experience. Beautiful. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. E=mc2 IS F=ma.

    Thank you for clearly explaining that QuBits have an analog value during computation and not "both" 1 and 0 like so many others state. That "both 1 and 0 at the same time!" BS is the most confusing idea ever to enter computer science.

    • @david203
      @david203 2 роки тому

      It is only confusing because of the mysticism of the Copenhagen Interpretation, which physicists agreed to in 1927 and have slavishly adhered to ever since. A Qubit can only hold a 0 or a 1. It is a two-state device which only appears to be in an indeterminate state during a calculation. I hope that Dr. Hossenfelder corrects this sometime soon.

    • @thewiirocks
      @thewiirocks 2 роки тому

      @@david203 The device is ultimately digital. But during computation, Quantum computers make no effort to force a digital state. Rather, they allow the waveform to carry an infinitely precise state between 1 and 0 (what we might classically refer to as “fuzzy logic”) while doing calculations. Calculations are accomplished via interference of waves. The determination of 1 and 0 is forced immediately before the value is read.
      A similar computer could probably be built using fluids and disruptions to the fluids. But such a computer would be big, slow, and really difficult to use. i.e. Impractical for real-world use.
      Which means that no particular interpretation of Quantum physics is required to make Quantum computers work. Only that we are able to create logic gates out of known Quantum effects.

      @@david203 Geez. This has to be the first time I’ve been accused of making up how a computer works. It’s really not that complicated. From Microsoft Research’s page (first result for “quantum computing superposition“):
      *Qubits and probability*
      Classical computers store and process information in bits, which can have a state of either 1 or 0, but never both. The equivalent in quantum computing is the qubit, which represents the state of a quantum particle. Because of superposition, *qubits can either be 1 or 0 or anything in between*. Depending on its configuration, a qubit has a certain probability of collapsing to 1 or 0. The qubit's probability of collapsing one way or the other is *determined by quantum interference*.

    • @david203
      @david203 2 роки тому +1

      @@thewiirocks I did a Web search and found a large number of websites that claim that qubits can contain values between 0 and 1. Even though this search turned up many otherwise reliable websites, this is still incorrect. So this is not your fault, and Dr. Hossenfelder also somehow got this wrong. I apologize for accusing you of making it up!
      A qubit actually contains a quantum state, which is a linear combination (called a superposition) of two basis states, 0 and 1 (the coefficients are real numbers, in quantum computing, I believe; they are complex numbers in general). This is not the same as fuzzy logic, where a logic value is a real number between 0 and 1, inclusive. That's were many people seem to get it wrong.
      A basis state is any binary quantum value, such as spin, which behaves like a quantum state, meaning that it obeys the Schrödinger equation. It is not the usual 0 or 1 voltage level used in conventional computers. This means that a qubit is a superposition of these basis states, not a classical value of some sort, such as you would get by adding the voltage values for 0 and 1 and dividing by 2. A qubit is represented mathematically by a vector of the two base states.
      Quantum logic gates are represented mathematically by square arrays (matricies) of zeros and ones. When you apply a quantum logic gate to a quantum value, by matrix multiplying the two, you get another quantum value vector. It might be a pure 0, a pure 1, or a superposition of these two basis states. You cannot get a real number, because this is matrix multiplication, which mirrors how tiny systems behave (again, according to the Schrödinger equation).
      At the very end of a quantum calculation, the results, which are a set of qubits in some quantum state, are "measured", which means converted from the quantum domain (such as a set of up/down spin values) to the classical domain (which means zeros and ones). At no time do the components of a quantum computer hold values that are classically "in between" 0 and 1. All such values are superpositions of the 0 and 1 states only.
