Australia’s Quantum Data Bus; nice. We’re getting closer and within the next 7 years we will more than likely have quantum in mainstream computing at this rate.

RMIT University researchers have trialled a quantum processor capable of routing quantum information from different locations in a critical breakthrough for quantum computing.

The work opens a pathway towards the “quantum data bus”, a vital component of future quantum technologies.

Australia is making great strides in this area as well.

Scientists are racing to deploy foolproof quantum encryption before quantum computers come along that render all our passwords useless.

Passwords work today because the computers we have, while theoretically capable of breaking passwords, would take an impractical amount of time to do so.

I was asked recently if I had money given to me to invest in anything that would result in the betterment of people what would that be. I quickly shared “Gene Editing” such as CRISPR and Quantum. These 2 areas is changing our lives over the next 7 to 10 years in ways that we have only dreamed about. I love this article.

TENS of thousands of blind people could have their sight restored after scientists discovered how to manipulate genes at the back of the eyes.

Quantum computing game creators find humans more capable than AI in solving complex problems.

Breaking the stereotype stigma; great article on CAN PM. I love it when folks break the boundaries and stereotypes that society often places on groups.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau proved he’s more than just a pretty face when he wowed a room full of reporters and physicists with his knowledge of quantum computing.

The dashing politician was delivering his budget announcement at a press conference at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics Waterloo in Ontario, when he was put on the spot by a journalist.

Interesting read on Quantum Spin Liquid pulled from the online site Quora.

This question was originally answered on Quora by David Kahana.

Newswise — The saying of philosopher René Descartes of what makes humans unique is beginning to sound hollow. ‘I think — therefore soon I am obsolete’ seems more appropriate. When a computer routinely beats us at chess and we can barely navigate without the help of a GPS, have we outlived our place in the world? Not quite. Welcome to the front line of research in cognitive skills, quantum computers and gaming.

Today there is an on-going battle between man and machine. While genuine machine consciousness is still years into the future, we are beginning to see computers make choices that previously demanded a human’s input. Recently, the world held its breath as Google’s algorithm AlphaGo beat a professional player in the game Go—an achievement demonstrating the explosive speed of development in machine capabilities.

But we are not beaten yet — human skills are still superior in some areas. This is one of the conclusions of a recent study by Danish physicist Jacob Sherson, published in the prestigious science journal Nature.

Luv it — Improving Solar energy with Quantum.

A quantum process called singlet fission could boost solar cell efficiency by harnessing inaccessible parts of the solar spectrum.

Creative approach and I like it. I advise IT leaders, developers, architects, etc. to start learning as much as they can about Quantum Technology because technology in the next 6 to 7 years will begin the accelerated adoption of this technology and at that point it will be too late for folks in tech to catch up. Now is the time to learn and keep track of the progression of this technology as well as understand where and how this technology can be leveraged earlier in various areas of the infrastructure, devices, and even in industry.

Researchers gave internet users games that simulate quantum physics experiments, and internet users gave the researchers more elegant solutions.
