D-Wave - Natural Quantum Computation (Google Workshop on Quantum Biology)

[markandayar]

congratulation on your first Quantum computer to world

[CognitiveNetwork]

Motherboards are for computers... Quantum Computers use Fatherboards!

[CognitiveNetwork]

I thought we were 20 years away from this, no? I'm all in.

It might be a small effort but it has a useful quantum effect.

[Mobius14]

In layman's terms, let's just say Quantum Computers are the Supercomputers... of Supercomputers. They can do crap Supercomputers dream of.

[DurexDurpaneu2]

A bit too much for me by the end but I'm still excited as shit over this. Just for the simple fact that I see people having more interest in QC. Whether it will work on not we will find that out eventually. Till then I'm fucking thrilled we are still working on the idea. If they need my organs for this, they can have them!

[ClamCrunchy]

D-wave also has a distributed computing project that simulates how well quantum algorithms will run. You can run the project for free on your computer at aqua.dwavesys.com.

[ThePunisherNWO]

Its running AMD Bulldozer.

the end of humanity

....just the beginning of a new civilization

Can this thing play Crisis

[TheOriginalChris]

@mansonpan you don't need a very good PC to play crisis now a days :P

[viktorskarlatov]

@mansonpan A very important question which physicists disregard for reasons I can not fathom :)

[ddrake2010]

All the quantum themes are bringing us to a better thoughts... great article! ;-)

[Ernestopro1]

awesome!



[sp1nm0nkey]

Derpwave.

[renat1501]

That's great! I'm support an idea of creating quantum computer!

[Corvius47]

@renat1501 They have already created them!!

[abram730]

@renat1501 What type of quantum computer? Computational or AI.. they are quite different in how they would function.

[theqiezi]

Was it just me or was there precious little biology or "quantum biology" in this talk??

[abram730]

@theqiezi Not just you.. This is a conceptual talk.

[jepkofficial]

@theqiezi i think his company deals a lot with future Artificial intelligence applications. And they have been looking into the use of Quantum computers for that. Although he had to spend his entire talk on the computer itself since so many QC people were questioning his companies QC claims about a non-logic gate QC processor. People like me. ;)

[rtsownage]

He said semantic! o_O

[BrokenBjartur]

That went just a wee bit over my head.
