I read most of it. Totally beyond me what it is all about. What does it actually mean? What will soon be possible and why are they at a tipping point?
None the less, still very exciting times! |
Imagine computing and processing at a speed which was previously though unfathomable. For example, a single Quantum Computer could do an entire years worth of Simulation Folding on a multitutde of current supercomputers for something like Cancer in a matter of an hour, or maybe even less. This will advance and change technology and science in a way that the average person can't even begin to understand. This opens up countless doors into a totally different world devoid of disease and plentiful in prosperity for example. The potential is staggering, however scary at the same time, the question is what this kind of power will be used for when it comes to fruition. I also embedded a video in the OP to further shed light on the concepts.

This news blows me away, just amazing. Can't say I'm entirely shocked though with how many things I've already seen become reality that I never thought possible.
At the bold...I understand how this would help medical/scientific research significantly, but I don't see how the eradication of disease would result from faster processing power. This seems pretty unlikely, since there are so many other factors involved in discovering a cure for a given disease. Do explain, bc I obviously only know as much about quantum computing as what I just read. Also, how would prosperity result? This I really don't understand lol. You seem knowledgeable on the topic, hence why I'm asking.
