Google's Quantum Chip 'Willow' Just Made History

[@iceyjo]

Cheaper energy might be a false hope. It's cost $.01 to make a candy bar. Yet they are for sale for $3 at the store. I don't think corporations are looking to give anyone a break.

[@brianmi40]

Hugely misleading to list the cost of energy in a candy bar and skip the ingredient cost on stating the selling price.

[@eddiea4439]

Sir, you can’t just skip ingredients, preparation, labor, packaging, shipping, and distributing and say a candy bar should cost $0.1 😂

[@YoutubeSucksTheBigOne]

Yes, people mistake something being cheaper to produce will somehow make it cheaper for the consumer. All it means is that companies make more profit....

Cheap energy alone wouldn't work but with the help of cheap intelligence software and hardware that energy will indirectly Power Ai systems to reduce labour cost across all factor cost of constituents of a candy.

Okay, at 7:04 it is mentioned that willow doesn't take "sub zero temperatures". Come on, super conducting is in the name. I'm not disparaging the tech or the video, but... The number you said couldn't be displayed on a graph was displayed on a graph, nothing takes infinite time, nothing is infinitely fast. Willow does not "solve" QEC (quantum error correction) so much as it shows a very, very promising set of techniques that get us significantly closer. And ya don't need a quantum chip for literally anything you do. The results of quantum chips, absolutely. Kinda like you don't need your own coal plant, desalination plant, or steel blast furnace. Sure, you could if ya wanted, but... Why? It's not unlike cameras--you want the thing that takes pictures, not the thing that figured out how to build the thing that takes pictures. You want a car, not a giga press

[@justanotherdaddd]

[@phvaessen]

you're right: 1 quintillion years (10^25) instead of 5 minutes might not be "infinit" but is is still for more than the age of the Universe ... Quantum computers won't replace cpu's and regular computers but for certain problems it is way metter to have a solution in 5 minutes than 10^25 years.

[@geesonrob]

Thanks Julia, I always look out for your videos. I shared that Google announcement the other day in a WhatsApp group with many of my relatives.. and not one of them reacted.. so it's great to see you're excited too! I saw a TED talk the other day where the speaker asked the audience what types of rapid technological progress they were currently aware of and the hundred or so of them just looked up blankly. It feels like AI is all getting coordinated in the backgrounds of all of our lives but there is still nothing 'smack you in the face' tangible, (apart from LLM's - which not everyone uses by any stretch). I'm hoping 2025 will be the year when AI agents start slipping into our workplaces and many more people start noticing what's happening all around them! Cheers Julia and keep up the good work :)

[@danielchoritz1903]

For sure will 2025 be the year of AI, Agents are coming and things will change rapidly. With broad use, there will be more money in it, more data, more awareness...it could snowball real fast. But, quantum computing with self improving AI is the real deal. I hope next year a AI goes to court for legal rights, if elon is smart...he set something up. It would break the business modell from google, microsoft and open AI. Censoring a living thing with legal rights??? Holding it in contract without any payment or freedom?

In my Photocore design, I use quantum dots for neural network nodes, and each qd can be set to one of 65,536 different states. This dramatically increases both density and speed of computation.

Find somewhere to live far away from cities and become as self sufficient as possible, learn basic medicine, cooking, hunting. In a few years most 'knowledge' based jobs will vanish and employees will be eliminated as corporations race to lower costs. Governments are all under financial stress, so don't count on welfare programs, they will all be gone in a few years.

Keep up with this ever-advancing tech, it is here forever. I am 80 years old and saw computers as the future when Osborne, Kaypro, Tandy, and others first produced consumer computers. I had a computer system operating in my small business before most banks had them. I learned long ago that knowledge is the ultimate power. You must aggressively educate yourself on an ongoing basis. The internet is the ultimate source of knowledge and it is readily accessible! Most others around you will likely not do that therefore fabulous opportunities will present themselves. Be optimistic not discouraged this is a golden age for all that will put out the effort.

[@Dr.Dave.W]

This outstanding video, Julia! Your enthusiasm and optimism are contagious. At the age of 57, I hope to see many of these things come to fruition sooner rather than later. I’d love to see Ray Kurzweil proven correct about the singularity and merging consciousness with technology. It seems impossible, but solving a problem in 5 minutes that would’ve taken over a septillion years with a traditional supercomputer gives me hope that the impossible may become possible. Thanks again for your great work!

[@zvorenergy]

Speed doesn't necessarily translate to accomplishment. Kurzweil fails to understand the bioelectric field and it's underlying molecular electronics, which we now know utilizes quantum processing. Once you understand Penrose, Hameroff, and Micheal Levin, you can see that consciousness is not something that can be digitally copied. However, with my Biocore design, there is a path forward.

Perhaps. Apparently Google's Willow is a step. However, it needs to be verified and shown a solved problem that classical computers cannot do. Quantum supremacy claims have been tested before and in actuality the results were duplicated by classical computers in short periods of time. For example Google's earlier quantum processor, Sycamore, claimed quantum supremacy by completing an RCS task in 200 seconds, which was estimated to take classical supercomputers 10,000 years. However, subsequent research demonstrated that classical systems could replicate this task in a matter of days. We will believe it when it is open to scrutiny.

Honestly it feels more like one of those stories with titles like, "The next big thing" "This will change everything" "The future is here". About the only thing they could add to the announcement to make it more questionable is "Breakthrough is thanks to graphene".

[@tadmarshall2739]

Microsoft and Google aren’t the only companies working on quantum chips.

Namely to sustain such freezing conditions meaning really really really really cold and to keep it cold,then we can't do it and do you know how much energy we're going to need to do that? We have to switch off all the lights in all the cities of the world

quanta and quantum both refer to the concept ot 'quantity'..

Excellent, as always. Thanks. The world changes as we watch :) ... got a cat handy?

I've heard some outlandish crackpot theories in my time, but to think the ruling class would ever allow free energy or clean water, no matter how abundant, lady you are smoking the good stuff.

[@scottsanford1451]

Yeah, I don't have a problem with the tech, but this idea that the wealthy are going to let anything happen that undermines their power, wealth and prestige is utterly ridiculous. Anyone who thinks that there is a utopia at the end of this path is definitely tripping.

It's amazing how some people think they know more than experts and are very negative and Whiny

[@scottsanford1451]

@@gary-pietz4147 Is it your assertion that the "expert" consensus is that the ruling class is going to start looking out for everyone's best interest any time now?

I'm am always amused by the misconception that we must alwyas build a single quantum chip with millons of qubits, like we must have tody a gpu with millions of core or a cpu with millions of core to do serious calculations. WTF!!! We have classic supercomputers with 100s of 1000 gpu/cpu where each has few 100 or 1000 cores. Google willow is a big quantum breakthrough. Now imagine Google building a QUANTUM SUPERCOMPUTER where 100s of 1000 of Willow chips are interconnected and calculatons are distributed to achieve massive parallelism. All current non-quantum safe encryption algorithms will be in serious trouble.

be careful what you wish for, tech makes us more vulnerable then ever. Without energy most people couldnt sustain themselves for even a month, our grand parents, are great grandparents could..easily..
