The Future of Quantum Computing

Today's robots are less intelligent than cockroaches, but advances in quantum computing—transferring information using atoms rather than silicon—could revolutionize the field of AI.

No that would be the next Nikolai Tesla.

Edison would be the guy who managed patent and sell it.

My new favourite insult : "Shut up you lobotomised, mentally challenged cockroach!" >:D

The best idea I have is to create a sphere lined with some material capable of reflecting cosmic rays and other crazyness. Next would be to have only the atoms in the sphere, nothing else. A vacuum plus the atoms your using would reduce the effects of random vibration, but when the vibrations happen, perhaps the atoms could be dependent on a different gravitational force, or momentum acting fast enough that the atoms obey it as if it was gravity. Thats the best I got, but I don't know for sure..

Dr. Michio Kaku, what hope do neural networks hold for information processing? Can this framework provide a interface between physical symbol systems and our biological neural networks?

Challenge Accepted.

I should do my homework, but this is too interesting.

dig a hole a thousand feet down. In that hole put pistons coming from every angle that auto adjust to even the smallest changes in the earth. Now, connected to those pistons put a large sphere the size of a building. The outer skin of this sphere would be made of our best shielding against frequency, atomtic rays, the general muck of the universe. In the center of the sphere, dangle a box from wires. In that box, put your quantum computer.

How do we ask him a Question ?

@GaaaDing

Haha! I actually use that man. It always make them shut up... they don't have a comeback for that one :D

Ins'nt it possible to have infinite states between 0 and 1?

@11Stonecold11 Well first off he said robots, not all computers ever. They do actually have an incredibly difficult time doing anything at all. However, i would have to disagree with him on this because it is essentially a programming issue at this point. There is no actual artificial intelligence. All of these robots are just machines executing preassigned commands. The reason they cannot see chairs or decipher speech is because they cannot think, not because they are slow.

if u look at a quantum computer, it crashes lol
