How to Program a Quantum Computer

Quantum computing already exists, but on a truly miniscule scale. We'll probably have molecular computers before true quantum ones, says the physicist.

3 atom quantum computer

Close enough

@450teamsuzuki IMO :)

@ironmaiden66695 We are also starting to get off of the ground with nanotechnology, and this sounds very similar to what you're describing.There is another video on YT that explains more about quantum computing, and ibmlab also has something posted about how they can get rid of the vibrations of the atoms so there will be zero interference. You are probably right about the quantum computer code though.we can only use it in something not someone.Nanotechnology is where we will make a breakthrough

Aren't Google and D-Wave teaming up to solve machine learning problems with Quantum computing? It's not on individual atoms, but it's still a big advance.

@450teamsuzuki i dont think so. because atoms are different than DNA\ Genetics. And what do me mean a way to copy and paste atoms? Do you mean like computers built into the atoms in people? If thats what you mean that wouldnt work. He says vibrations interfere with the atoms so I dont think that is possible. Or if it is I think the technology to build something like that is way beyond what we can do today.

So if we compute using single atoms and in theory find a copy and paste..then we are able to start enhancing our genetic makeup? Or am I way off? Just wondering

@FrozenNyte thats what im talking about.. our computers are programmed on a digital signal or 0v and 5v or something similar... Off 0v or On 5v (which is how the get 0s and 1s)0v=0s and 5v=1s. Analog signals are 0v or 5v or anything in between. Is a quantum computer based of an analog DC signal?

IBM just made the Quantum Computer, next?

@noahgolman The finality of Moore's Law will be the technological singularity. AI will get so advanced that it will be able to create an even more advanced AI (and on and on and on). We probably won't be alive to see this go down but I can guarantee it will be a beautiful moment for mankind.

@commofan88 the heat comes from resistance, have the size, half the heat. If shrinking in size meant increase in heat then all our smartphones would burn holes in our pockets.
