  • Amazing. Thank you.

    Don’t ever apologise for getting carried away. Sharing something you’re passionate about is a gift for your audience!

    Can you also explain quantum advantage for me?

    And share your thoughts on what you think the timeline will look like for the development of quantum computing?

    Also I’m sorry but I have one more question for you, Being a bit of a tech nerd I’ve had a few conversations with people about quantum computing and encryption. Obviously there’s concerns that current cyphers will be obsolete, but I’ve always wondered is this not a problem that we could easily solve by just drastically ramping up entropy?


  • I have a very very basic idea which could be wrong.

    When qubits are entangled they’re basically a traditional bit of data, paired to another. If you change one of the bits, you change the other.

    So what’s the benefit? I think the easiest way of thinking about it is to dumb it down as much as you can.

    If I’m processing 4 bits of data. Say 1010. And then I execute a function that changes that data to say 0101. Traditionally I need to send another 4 bit string of data for processing. But if my original data was actually a pair of entangled qubits of say 10 and 10, well if I change one of the pair to 01 i’ve changed the other pair already because they’re entangled.

    So effectively through one qubit entangled pair I’ve doubled my throughput.

    So if you can effectively scale this, the potential upside is huge.
