New quantum computers - Potential and pitfalls | DW Documentary

A new supercomputer is slated to make it possible to reduce animal experiments and perhaps to cure cancer. The hype surrounding quantum computing is inspiring numerous industries, raising claims that it could help solve the problem of storing renewable energy, or that it could help revolutionize the logistics sector.
A Swiss start-up that produces artificial lungs is looking towards quantum algorithms to become more efficient and, for example, help find a cure for cancer and rendering experiments on animals redundant. A private investor has brought these goals one step closer by allowing Swiss start-ups to use quantum computers commercially. The technology is still considered to be at the beginning of its development curve, science does not yet know its full capabilities. Big players such as Google and IBM are in competition to create ever newer and faster quantum computers. This film opens a window into the world of supercomputers, and explores how their potential and their dangers seem to exist side by side.

1) There are various type of Quantum Computers: Digital Quantum Computers, and Quantum Annealers/Simulators are two major categories, and there are various ways for achieving those. Quantum Annealers and Simulators are more like analog computing devices rather than digital computers. They are the most commercially employed devices as of now (such as port logistic optimization, garbage collection optimization, patriot tracking solutions etc.) Most experts think digital quantum computers will dominate and transform the market once error resistant logical qubits become available. (10 years?) 2) EU is backwards in both categories. It is somewhat better in Quantum Annealers/Simulators. The leading (commercialized) digital quantum computer is IBM Q, and leading (commercialized) annealer is D-Wave, with various applications in defence and logistics (since logistics=economy, this is a big current application, see Dassault). 3) EU is playing catch up with new EU projects (as well as various national level projects). However budgets are still very limited compared to China and US budgets. 4) EU is heavily promoting PASQAL in project requirements (a simulator/annealer state sponsered quantum computing firm from France).

For the record, the OP is talking about the segment at 6:16. After having seen it, I agree that DW's attempts at tongue-in-cheek humor there, "primarily known because of a cat", "an experiment that he fortunately never carried out in real life", rather falls flat on its face. 1) No, he is primarily known as one of the founders of quantum mechanics and for the Schrödinger equation. That's like saying that Einstein is primarily known for E = mc2 and for crazy hair, rather than for developing the theory of relativity. Granted, popular science vs. science, I guess. 2) Yes, I am afraid you are probably confusing your general audience by mixing up thought experiments with real experiments for the sake of a cheap joke there, DW. Still, thanks for the great documentary!

@@Irrazzo One can easily carry out Schroedinger's cat as a real experiment. Even at home. It will be just as pointless as it is as a Gedankenexperiment. The problem isn't Schroedinger.

The reporter got "quanta" completely wrong. Come to think of it, quanta hasn't been used to explain quantum mechanics since Max Plancks time. Quantum mechanic effects are seen clearly on the atomic scale, you don't need to be smaller than an atom.

[@adampullen3786]

"Quanta" is just a semantic thing. It just is the root word in quantum mechanics - where quantum is actually the singular version. So not quite sure what you mean by "it hasn't been used since Planck." Though I agree the use of the word the way the reporter was using it sounds a bit odd, as most people would assign something to the word - as it just means smallest piece of something. So most people would say electrons, ions, photons, etc. instead of just saying quanta, however I think given the reporter is doing his best and isn't a scientist this is nit-picking. Like the whole "smaller than an atom" quote is just for effect. Obviously you don't "need" to go smaller than an atom - but we absolutely do. The most popular form of qubit at the moment is an electron, which is very much smaller than an atom.

Quantum computing has been "a thing" since the beginning of the universe. Every single proton, for instance, computes the proton mass, something we can't do with classical computing very well. Every hydrogen atom computes the entire spectrum of hydrogen to infinite precision. That's very cool. It's also very useless. The problem is to make useful quantum computers and that is still lacking. There are fundamental reasons why it may not amount to as much as the current hype predicts.

I also don't think you really gave a reason that it won't live up to the hype you just said the technology is still in infancy.

[@adampullen3786]

I agree we don't know what may happen in the future. However, there are certain physical limits you run into when making computers as small as we're making them right now. This is in fact one of the reasons quantum computing has some buzz - because theoretically it could break through barriers that the typical modern transistor is running into. But the physical limitations quantum computers have is also many - finding methods to actually physically control electrons and contain them is one such limit, as well as operating these methods at room temperature.

[@lepidoptera9337]

@@adampullen3786 A proton is a quantum system and it does produce a measurable physical property called "mass" that is very hard to calculate classically from first principles. To somebody in the field of computing that's a calculation and it's a valid "benchmark" between classical and quantum systems, whether you like it or not. So is classical chaos, of course, which not even a quantum computer can calculate. That we both agree that nature doesn't actually calculate doesn't matter.

How much is AI involved in research and development of quantum computing?

[@SquashyPan]

Hi! I have a bit of background in both fields, so maybe I can give an answer. Ai and quantum computing are two exciting fields and often the two are used together without any good reason. Quantum computing is a novel way to tackle certian problems and it is not clear or obvious if it will be used to train better Ai, possibly in some distant future it might happen but it's too early to say. On the other hand, making qubits is quite complicated and it requires carefully tuning devices. In the future, where it would be impossible to manually tune thousand of qubits that might even "talk" to eachoter, Ai tech could be used to tackle this multi variable/parameter space that is very hard to envision for our brain but it's Ai (and machine learning) bread and butter. You could take a look at the Nature comm. open access paper published also by the professor of the video named "Machine learning enables completely automatic tuning of a quantum device faster than human experts"

Quantum machine learning aims to develop algorithms that harness the power of quantum computers to solve machine learning problems more efficiently. Quantum-enhanced Optimization: Optimization is a fundamental task in AI, and quantum computing has the potential to provide speedups for certain optimization problems. AI techniques are applied to develop quantum algorithms that can optimize complex systems, improve resource allocation, and enhance decision-making processes. Simulation and Modeling: Quantum computers can be used to simulate quantum systems, which is valuable for understanding quantum phenomena and designing new materials with specific properties. AI techniques, such as neural networks, can be employed to analyze and interpret the results of quantum simulations, helping researchers gain insights into complex quantum systems. Error Correction and Noise Mitigation: Quantum computers are susceptible to errors caused by noise and decoherence. AI techniques are utilized to develop error correction codes and noise mitigation strategies that improve the reliability and performance of quantum computing systems. Overall, AI plays a crucial role in advancing the field of quantum computing by contributing to algorithm development, optimization, simulation, error correction, and other areas critical for realizing the potential of quantum computers. The synergy between AI and quantum computing is expected to drive innovation and accelerate progress in both fields."

Why does that look like a ZPM from Stargate 😮

[@KG-qw4fv]

Ai is a stepping stone

[@semerebaraki5911]

But it is not just two places at the same time it's infinitely many places at the same time.

[@adampullen3786]

qubits? well typically if you use electrons its only 3. Where the 3rd is just a superposition of either spin up or down. I will say there are other options such as photons, which can increase the spectrum of states they can exist in by taking into account phase, frequency, and intensity. But wouldn't say it's infinite as far as I'm aware.

[@macombus269]

And in the meantime, I will continue to consciously consume products that are not tested on animals. 💪🏽🌱

[@adampullen3786]

not pharmaceutical drugs you won't... lol

[@KingFr4nky]

So, after this invention we are free, can f'ck around and don't need to worry or work anymore?

[@Apjooz]

If we want to, yes. But we have to want it.

[@sama1220]

Yeah simulating molecules is cool and all, but will it run Escape from Tarkov at 150+ frames? 🤔

[@Human_01]

Quantum computing sees the manipulation of electro-magnetic fields and [quantum] particles being utilized as hyper sensitive calculators and potentially sensors. The potential of quantum computing is limitless. Their benefit is a reenactment of lasers; being a solution that requires problems to solve. Quantum computing will be compulsory for mind-upload technology, as well as gifting Ai with an artificial soul. Quantum computing only needs to be further developed. Quantum computing will make it easier to understand the literal fabric of our reality (and consciousness itself).

[@MrThewhore]

Let's see!

[@LanaKaniuka-ql3uo]

But you have to really take under consideration what kind field be used for transportation of information!!! Magnetic fields is very dangerous as it intervenes with magnetic field of earth and that might have side affects that you will not be able to fix it!!!

[@KingNemba]

Its crazy you can invent and build something you absolutely do not fully understand how it works

[@chrisking7603]

There's more quantum behaviour in my fingertip than all of the world's existing quantum computers.

[@adampullen3786]

not really sure what your meaning is..

[@pichirisu]

Highly suggest everyone look up post-quantum cryptography. Quantum computing is cool, but it’s not as sci fi or ground breaking as people make it out to be.

[@stevel9678]

Breathless hype.

[@gunkwretch3697]

its nice to see scientists admit that animal testing is both inaccurate and cruel, only sick people thought otherwise

[@thelearnedindividual5765]

Using cells from humans is a good start but honestly if you want to see the effect on humans you need to test it on a human body. If we grow functioning human bodies that aren’t conscious that would be the pinnacle of moral testing. It should be transparent though as there are obvious moral implications.

[@godfreycarmichael]

I, for one, welcome our new quantum computer overlords.

[@V8-friendly]

We already live all in a simulation. 💻 😮

[@ryanreedgibson]

Sure. And I, the Easter Bunny, confirm this.

[@V8-friendly]

@@ryanreedgibson There you go. Easter season is just around the corner, and the Easter Bunny will come as every year, if there is no glitch in the simulation. 💻

[@JC-ji1hp]

Ai problem solving + quantum computing will change every aspect of life very soon. Weather prediction, markets, harvests, diseases, crispr and stem cell. Insane we are living in these times.

[@Texas_Uncut]

Would there be countries that would be opposed of the idea of using blockchain technology? 😅
