What’s your take on quantum.

They say it’s breaking away from binary and that it will use entanglement and superposition. The idea of qubits blows my mind have u seen the representation of one. It can hold four states in one 🤯. I still dont understand the use case application capabilities. Any ideas?

It's simple. Everything in the universe is a fractal. Everything that's happening on a massive scale, is also happenin in quantum scale.

@Northwest I wasn't talkin about religion. I was talking about Allah telling me things. How is that religion, again?

My bad. I stand corrected. It's not about religion, but you have conversation with "Allah" 😭

@Northwest Yes, I do. I'm His best friend. The best out there. What's funny

Explanation:
https://www.ibm.com/topics/quantum-computing

As these two articles and other articles state. The technology requires supercooling. So don't expect it to be in any desktop or such any time soon.

Actually, the biggest discovery here is google getting around the number of errors in the process. They broke the error threshold, somehow. Yet that's a different topic and very likely copyrighted.

None of the articles I have seen talk much on how that is being done by Google.
@DeWayfarer I don’t imagine they would tell us but I would expect it to be a paid cloud service like GPT api and AWS services. I would assume it’s tensorflow

@userfawkes1105 I have no idea on this, because I do not have a good grasp of quantum math. Which it very likely must have.

The cat is eating it's tail, with Schroeders cat making double disappearing appearances.
@DeWayfarer I agree we’re like causing the singularity we all fear. One level is ai like gpt but another is an ai that’s smarter than us and that’s when the singularity will probably occur lol. 😂

???

Quantum mechanics? Quantum Entanglement?

A qubit can exist in an infinite number of possible states.

I was referring to when you analyze and combine data sets to work of. You aggregate within the database to build new datasets and reports so I think they are highly relevant and if qubits can be binary values you could technically store those qubits in a database and aggregate them there. Then pass those onto the quantum process. What’s your take on programming then if it’s not this? What stack are you coming from?

In database technology, each field either represent a stand alone property, for instance first_name, or is an object, for instance address, an object, that when you unpack, you will find a substructure with the following fields:

street:
unit:
city:
zip:

And is organized as a hash that will gibberish when examined using Sequential Query Language Tools.

The database server can either be SQL(plain fields), NonSQL (fields as objects), or Hybrid.

But that's a technique to package data, store data, retrieve and decipher data. You can throw encryption as a parameter if you want to further complicate things.

When I program, I use a Hybrid technology, and "patterns" to package, encrypt, and retrieve, decrypt and unpack.

But that's a programming technique, not programming.

Quantum computing is going through an intermediate phase, when professionals and researchers are trying to use traditional tools for expediency's sake, but that will go away, when fractal-like templates will be developed to instantly manipulate qubit generated data.

This is something I envisioned 30 years ago, but didn't think would be achievable in our lifetime.
@Northwest well if it took 30 years since it’s still new I’m sure there will be plenty of time where they will co exist and I don’t see why you shouldn’t store the qubits and combining with other columns describing the qubit you couldn’t aggregate its values like with min or something assuming the qubit stored as a binary value also has adjacent columns with human readable values and aggregate new data with joins. And other connections. I’m sure there are other ways to work those but I don’t see why u couldn’t also implement that kind of technique.

@userfawkes1105 Ummm.... No.

There isn’t really one that’s the problem outside of a few niche uses that I’ve forgotten.

It’s cool but not very useful.
@PalteseMalconFunch yeah I you might be right. Then there’s the power it would need

@userfawkes1105 Like it sounds really awesome but like 0s and 1s work really well.

It’s going to be revolutions in using multiple cores that push things forward, quantum computing is a good thing, we will learn so much from trying, but will ultimately not lead to much more than that.

Most of it hype for the public to keep them going investing. Which is an ultimate good but QC will never be the game changer people think it will.

But something else will be that game changer and we probably learned that from QC research.
@PalteseMalconFunch yeah I think it’s why trump wants more energy not sure we have infrastructure yet for it or beneficial use cases. But it’s like an AI race lol. But yeah I agree with gpt like tech what we have is good enough
@Softy1 yeah you saw it too 😎
