A quantum computer isn’t just a more powerful version of the computers we use today; it’s something else entirely, based on emerging scientific understanding — and more than a bit of uncertainty. Enter the quantum wonderland with TED Fellow Shohini Ghose and learn how this technology holds the potential to transform medicine, create unbreakable encryption and even teleport information.

Normal computers have transistors.
Quantum computers have electromagnetic manipulated electrons spinning in a circle.
How they turn either of those things into useful programs is beyond me.
… and will human beings ever have quantum spectrographic ultralaser machines, faster pantographs/3D copiers/3D printers, quantum cell phones 📱📱or this has nothing to do with what the scientist has explained and it is a silly question? 20210905 (Sunday).
For now, there is no science fiction again!!
This explains absolutely nothing
It's like humans are learning the language of aliens
I JUST PRINTED AN ARTICLE SO I COULD MEMORIZE GRAPHINE & SILICON NITRIDE. IT DOESN'T EASILY ROLL OFF THE TONGUE. I HAD IT MEMORIZED & THREE MONTHS BATTLING CON ARTISTS ON THE INTERNET I FORGOT. THE PAGE PRINTED SO SMALL I WOULD NEED A MAGNIFYING GLASS TO READ IT. SO MANY HTML5 PAGES DON'T PRINT CORRECTLY OR SAVE TO PDF CORRECTLY. INSTACART SCAM ARTISTS I'M TALKING TO YOU. THESE KIDS CAN'T MASTER HTML5 HOW WILL WE EVER ARRIVE AT QUANTUM COMPUTING BEFORE A FULL SCALE WAR OR PLAGUE ACTUALLY BREAKS OUT??? This is exactly why I STOPPED INVESTING IN TECHNOLOGY. I SENSED A PLATEAU.
Thank you for all this, now I know what are possibilities of this field 🙂
OK so it's sounds like . that Will always have super position.. that overall inscriptions .. OK it can be very useful but have to understand more . . 🤔 its exciting 👏👏
I don"t believe that flipping a coin state of in "nature life" the computer can predict a 97% success rate , its just not true ,. these probability are predicted within a software enviroment based on human behaviour patterns. If it can you've discovered a profit… However Quantum computers will control and eventually rid the environment of man , he will become redundant..
What ….🤐
so there's another Life .
Casinos in Las Vegas surely do not have quantum computers but their quests have quantum wallets.
I dont like the idea of quantum computers/technology in the hands of banks and private corporations, sounds more scary than anything
The coin can be heads or tails. It lands tails. I reach down and flip the coin to heads. Feels like cheating.
Also feels like a poor example. The computing ignored the audiences input and just said it's heads everytime.
Not very useful.
My understanding of QC was of fast processing of large data sets.
This quantum thing made me want to watch a movie
Litearlly in the whole yt you cannot find a video explaining actually how quantum computers work, instead they talk what it is, what it does, and how its useful….
bruh i already fucking know quantum superposition, quantum tunneling, quantum entanglement
If you didnt understand then maybe this will help:
_Normal computer knows one language 1&0.
_Quantum computers know many languages not just 1&0.
Hopefully that was useful 😊👍
(there is a difference between a computer language [1 & 0] and a programming language [python,Java script, html, CSS…. ect])
This seems like a bad example. The computer is basically allowed to have both coin flips to choose from.
So in the end boys are boys and girls are tails..
The glass is half empty, The glass is half full & the glass has water in it… … got it.
Problem is quantum stuff works only when it is not observed it is like game of posibilities until no one can see what is going on everything is possible once you see it the harsh reality strikes . Quantum entangeled objects are same objects in diferent places so you have quantum entangeled coin it has both states in all places but when you look at it in specific space you can see only one side of the coin and in that specific time you know in other place there is definitely oposite side of the coin so you can say information is instant like Time travel. For me problem with this quantum coin game is quantum pc get a choice flip the coin and state of the coin can be 1 or 0 so quantum pc flips the coin last and when coin is fliped no one knows what will it be so it can be 0 or 1 and this canot be observed so quantum theory allows it to be in both states so at the end when coin is observed it can be in desiered state because you know wich state you want to see so this game is like cheating. Problem is when we put a third party observer quantum state canot be achived because this observer can see the coin and knows on wich side coin landed each time and because of that coin canot be in both states at the same time and quantum pc is pointless.
Is this same place where gates initiated the pandemic.?
What? I agree with a lot of you here, I learned nothing from that. It sounds like a carnival scam, it just cheats? And how can that be applied to "every aspect of our lives."
Yeah but can one quantum computer hack another quantum computer
I think I was born too early
Now 2 years later, quantum banking is in place and about to go live. Quantum internet is in place via star link satellites, again ready to go live. Medical may or may not be ready as the drug.companies will fight every inch of any change. Tesla free energy is coming which is only 120 years old. Change is coming and long overdue.
2022 will be time of quantum computing and Artificial intelligence
It is future…Hats off science and its inventions..hurray we can teleport ourselves..🤟🤟😜😜
great
She knows so much, wow, amazing . great work. . . . . . ;
😀 what a time to alive
Basically, they are building machines that will take over and control human life. But they are not smart enough to know it.
Don't call me stupid but is Quantum computing related to Quantas Airlines?
Researchers have broken new grounds in Quantum computing with qubits. According to them there are more mathematical combinations of 256 qubits than there are atoms in the whole universe. Beat that !!
I don't care what kind of computer you are building as long as I can play Battlefield and watch Mia Khalifa on it..
I'd love to see a Trump voter mount a case for how a quantum computer backed voting system rigged the election against Trump, "The wave function didn't collapse at x = L! Wave didn't collapse! Wave didn't collapse!"
Beautiful presentation! Very exciting possibilities to explore!
stupid explanation!
so many candles so little light bulbs in the comments
I bet they have mined a few bit coins with that thing by now to fund it
Girls when moody on asking if they are ok , gives response like state of quantum computer. 10% yes 90% no and always in a state of uncertainty 😂
Thanks ma'am
