What is the next "big thing"?
What is the next "big thing"?
Right now it seems like its "A.I.". Still big now are the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine. Recently we had COVID 19.
What's next?
You're viewing a single thread.
Personal quantum computers, and maybe virtual reality with artificial intelligence combined.
Personal quantum computers would be truely useless. They break specific kinds of encryption, and simulate other quantum systems. Other than that, nobody's been able to devise a way to make them do much practical work.
Really, it's unfortunate they were named that, because they're only like computers if you have a solid background in computing to understand the analogy. "Quantum emulator" or "programmable quantum system" might be a better word that wouldn't make people think it's the next semiconductor node. Alas, I have no time machine to fix it.
Maybe useless to you. I’ll definitely find use for it. And cracking encryption is a huge plus. Quantum computers have been around for a long time and in use there are all sorts of software and even special OS for it just not for public use for obvious reasons.
Bro, do you even know a Kronecker product from a discrete log? You'll find a use my ass. And now you're in with a super secret group of quantum computer users. Are you sending ninjas after me next?
