A quantum computer can determine who wins a game faster than a classical comp...

[jrkirby93]

Him: "I'm gonna summarize everything we need to know about quantum mechanics" 10:15

Me: "Okey"

[GubbyMan92]

Nooo!!! He was saying the game so many times that it made me lose The Game... And now, YOU lost The Game too. :p

[circanyc]

He keeps saying NAND instead of not and it is annoying



[osokona]

@circanyc If he says NAND, he means NAND.

[modelmark]

hey, quantum mechanics is deterministic

[minecraftmole]

im 13 at first i thought a computer was going to do something cool , then i thought i was going to learn something now my brain just hurts

[schwoazi]

Haha, Eigenvalue. "Eigenwert" in German ==> Eigenvalue in English???

[moud22]

@schwoazi jups

[a1q2s3]

Discrete Mathematics gives me a headache, I dropped that course...

[brutsi]

seoretical physics

[kargaroc386]

Can a quantum computer figure out how to win The Game?

[nactan]

Fuck you, Computers WILL take over the world one day and that's that. Suck on it.

[funkymunky65]

@nactan You have to program it to do that first you twat, do you think we are that stupid?

[Dirtboy101]

I love the way he says "Okay"... It reminds me of the way you talk to a little kid when he or she is sobbing.

[jcrossn]

If this is isnt amazing, then I dont know what else :)

[TheNataliaRR]

This small group of people they know, how to not die with quantum mechanic.

[heavyd72587]

this is NUTS.  quantum computers are the super computers of tomorrow with google.. smarter and smarter computers are going to be beggining of a new era of using "all knowing" all encompassing computer programs that the major population will depend on..

good or bad?

[1imax111]

both

[philerskine]

they are far more than the 'super computers of tommorow'.

they are, theoretically (or eventually) so much more intelligent that they surpass the human brain.

one quantum computer has more computing power than a classical computer the size of the universe, said Seth loyd.

[aqwiz]

that's kinda like saying that a classical computer has more computing power than a multiplication table the size of the universe you realize

[philerskine]

well, yh because the universe is infinite. so the scale doesnt work anyway

[aqwiz]

more to the point an abacus the size of the universe. . . what I meant was, that a quantum computer's computing power is not INFINITE it just works in a different way.

[cantfindascreennam]

@philerskine cosmology fail

[BeeefyBeast]

they are computers they are not intelligent. a computer does what its told to do, it is not a living thing of its own, it does not think for itself.

classical computers are simple. there are boolean gates that usually have 2 inputs and 1 output. each gate has its unique output depending on the input. so like this they create really complicated logic(microprocessors)

[philerskine]

i didnt mean that computers will become a living thing, or that they have actually intelligence.

however, now you mention it - you cant really say that they wont

[BeeefyBeast]

I have no idea how you could make a software that learns new things and changes itself. This might be possible i just dont see how this could be done

[osteilsi]

human thought is based on neurons which are simple too

[BeeefyBeast]

its possible to create such intelligent programs.. but the problem is nobody can do it

[aqwiz]

not true, there are several learning robots, that have the intelligence of like, a 5 year old now.

[falafel1995]

@aqwiz No they don't. As Michio Kaku says "Today's most intelligent robot is as smart as a stupid, slow, retarded, lobotomized cockroach."

[ownage999912]

@aqwiz

5 year olds in china can do calculus and ride bikes, can computers ride bikes?

[aqwiz]

@ownage999912 first of all you are comparing apples to interstellar battle-cruisers(riding a bike is a mechanical activity, not an electrical one), second ever heard of a segway? well there's your equivalent, as the computer maintains the balance via mechanical components.

[linuxguru1968]

Too bad Google isn't putting quantum computers in its new data centers.

[HoBo2Be]

with a best game of tic tac toe you can never lose. Neither can ever lose.

[SlaveryEvolves]

@boxa888 why haven you published it in a scientific journal and claimed stardom and fortune?

[boxa888]

@SlaveryEvolves its on my youtube site if you are interested, video of wireless proof and theoretical stuff. thank you , the technology is 100 yrs ago. a few months ago, cern had some proof of possible faster than light data transfer with nutrinos, so it is possible at somepoint in human evolution.

[sxyjavon]

Yea, who could have predicted that labron james would have made that 1 second shot at the end of the game. Im not dissing the notion, but it sounds like rubbish to me. These guys are smarter than myself, but logical thinking tells me that someone could start off having a good game, but not so much at the end. Does the computer adapt to that?

[GManNickG]

Did you miss the part where he said both players are playing best possible?

[HoBo2Be]

I haven't heard the part about maybe. There are 3 possible states. Scientific America late 1970's and early 80's. A true random and not one based on timing as with conventional computers.

[drock311fk]

your right but hes saying that if everyone plays BEST POSSIBLE. obviously he realizes your point, thats why best possible is written all over his diagrams.

[beelzbub]

This isn't really describing that kind of game. It is more applicable to NIM-type mathematical games, like Pearls Before Swine. In that kind of game, aka Marienbad, there are "rules" that dictate how a player should move based off binary numbers. In Pearls Before Swine II, the first player will always win if they follow these "rules," or in other words play the best possible without mistakes.

[CrazyMonkey124]

He isn't talking about games like that, more mathematical and strategic games like chess and other games mentioned, but if someone went off the computer would determine the best possible path from that point on.

[xhnpohugafsd]

For those of you who think quantum computers are purely of academic interest, did you know that quantum computers are exponentially faster than the fastest supercomputer available today?

If a practical quantum computer were to be built, the entire computer industry would literally undergo a revolution.

[SaintBelmont]

If Quantum computers are to take off, and their are right. That people are going to have quantum laptops by 20 years from now.

Using atoms to store information and whatnot. They could do an entire Universe of programmable multitasks.

We are talking like 99 to the power of 10 GHZ, that kind of redicoulous speeds once the software catches up with the full potential of the machine.

[chuckbiss]

if both players play, i end up winning every time. DUH

[deadleg22]

Thought it was Arnie at the start

[gongargongar]

Arnold is austrian this guy seems pretty german. Germany owns austria

[fastLupus]

What do you exactly mean with "Germany owns Ausrtia"? Do you mean in size or that germany possess austria? Can you enlighten me.

[gongargongar]

I meant that germany is far superior to austria. And no, I do not wish to hear your biased opinion about your country.

[Krawnikal]

For gods sake it means it's 'pwns' austria, he was simply saying it out of jest.

[oilotnoM]

Nearer the end he definitely sounds more like richard feynman.

[davidwizard2006]

ok, that video does not show the hamiltonion is superior on performance than the gate model, maybe that is the reason of clarity and simplicity, also that video is little about game, they could talk using actually another problem more practical

[Cypher3343]

NERDS!!!!lol jk i apreciate you smart people...you make the world a better place for others.SUPERHEROES!

[humexavier]

Russian science of quantum computers super memory of infinite laser data download basically uses laser light not electricity for it's memory storage of data.Data memory through the use of light rays that charge special glass alloys in a new computer Ram memory base that can recognize and store light in the computer's memory with using light instead of electricity devices in like in normal super computer memory capability.Though we find that the intel pentium 4 must be in a state of levitation.

[WaterCow12]

a space should go after a period. See. lol

[ler0np0]

So much of these weird weird stuff going around but sorry to say it looks completely useless in our current daily lives. Hope they can come out with something truly useful like teleportation stuff etc. lest science eventually loss interest in it and become part of the historical annals of 21st century failed or pseudo sciences.

[gongargongar]

hahahah

Yeah teleportations and phasers and time travel!! Good work bud ha ha ha ahhh man. Dont forget about the flying skateboards and robot maids!! bahahaha

[obesechicken13]

boring, sry but I can't watch past the first four minutes. But this is about a computer at MIT right. should have us play the game vs sum1 to save time then talk about the computer algorithm.

[KaoriBlue]

Nevermind, I should really shut up until I watch the whole talk!

[KaoriBlue]

Hey, does anyone know what the practical consequences are for the Farhi et. al. NAND tree O(N^0.5) proof given that it lives in the Hamiltonian oracle model? Will this impact an implementation on an actual quantum computer?

[timwintle]

Thank you Google - I've been hoping to see a presentation on this for a while now. Right up to date.

[hutzelmann]

why does the video of some stupid chick who talks about inetporn work so well and interesting stuff like that doesnt ?

[clearmenser]

because sex is one of the most (if not THE most) basic needs and wants for humans, primates, mammals.

[hutzelmann]

so ?

having sex is not very hard... everybody can do it ... unfortunately...quantum computers are not as trivial so a good lecture is more interesting imo...

[yarahahrwe]

Idiocracy ahoy

[KaoriBlue]

Obviously because there just isn't enough p_orn on arXiv!

[captcaveman4201]

excuse me typo problem solved !!

[captcaveman4201]

we are as humans following this quantum equation. and the answer that makes you win the game b4 it ends is to get rid of the use of currency. :) problem slolved
