Thank you Charina and Erik for this very interesting explanation and for your ability to explain where you stand. Keep up the good work!

Hey it’s Charina from the 60 minutes piece, cool! I’m investing in QC for the next 20 years or so, so I’m interested.

The quantum interactions within the processor, what dataset is used for the computation, materials, and cooling are critical to the "real world" applications of the system. But what is the interface? Is it some command prompt in a stand alone system? Will the public have access? What would that look like?

Thank you! Very clear and inspiring.

Great presentation

Una gran herramienta de trabajo digital y con mucha capacidad del sistema

The problem with quantum computing is that you need to be a quantum physicist to make meaningful contributions to the software space. I dont a single senior software engineer who is also a quantum physicist. Imbsure they exist but they are probably at google or ibm

I really enjoyed this one. Going to watch it with the older kids later on.

@1:30 Eric, Not necessarily many places simultaneously, but many states (I am being very picky). @3:15 Shut my mouth. So thankful Charina’s partner survived. Great video! @6:21 Google’s L/C qubit resonators are supercool!

The audience is such a buzzkill. It's demotivating for speakers, too. Great presentation, team!

This is about early quantum computing in the 2020s and 2030s. It will be significantly more advanced in the 2050s/2080s and into the next century. Classical computing will exist only as a means of human interaction (digital output is easy to convert to human analog input) but everything at the computational level will be quantum based. Video encoding/decoding, 3D rendering, and gaming will all be possible with QCs in the second half of the century, and especially next century. It will be cloud based however, probably subscription based, and heavily monitored, as well as all interactions training AI models, which will likely achieve singularity much sooner.

Are there real human beings in the audience? Or mannequins? Because humans would not have sat that dead in such an event!

2:26 🥰 The only problem is that nature makes the difficulty asymmetrical.. perhaps impossible for true ECC

@4:38 Charina, you say it’s an open question if quantum computers can provide a speedup for classical data like images, etc. I would like to read about that if you have any references to papers about it. So far all I have found is Chris Lomont’s 2003 paper proving quantum convolution is impossible. Maybe hybrid approaches (classical+quantum) can give super-polynomial speedup.

As an independent researcher and enthusiast of quantum computing, it’s time to start to look at everything around us and our technology as quantum and quantum data. I dream with the day I will be training a neural network with quantum data converted from classical data. We could stop AI hallucinations and control biases. Good job Google 🎉❤

Excellent! Brilliant!

Time Crystal we’re super cool. Quantum Computer + Q* + Veo 3 = ?

10:10 so the universe supports this because it's actually efficient enough ? the analogy would be that for computational primitives the universe is the conductor.. so the many body system is less complex. From our point of view (ZK output?) it is impossibly more complex the larger the system. Outstanding ! go Google🤩

I need to pick someone's brain for the moment at 375 seconds in - cant quite wrap my head around square root of not. Does anyone have more information on that that someone with no quantum background could understand?

Interesting

All of these speedups are "expected" but we have no demonstrated advantages.

Quantum phenomena would be more accurate, since the "mechanics" we see look like digital (ZK) outputs Same place same time -> no place until required.. (ZK) Entangled -> 1 and 0 as 10 or 01 or bit pairing..

When I see these brilliant brains, I feel myself like a mite eating leftovers in a carpet on a floor.

Can't qauntom computing take on the task of helping to streamline existing cause and effects for our new paradigm infrastructure? How do we get everyone on the same page to instate curriculum to teach this future ( vast majority useing universal operating systems) to the point Symantecs are all but irrelevant youth are introduced to the workforce quicker and younger ? The ratios of cause and effect of what ,where ,when ,why this sector is or isn't properly innovating. Or what happens if this markets buyer ,seller ,producer, investor is placed under one roof in one domain where private individuals can sub contract out they're skills and trade. The social infrastructure seems to have astronomical calculations to strengthen or weaken sectors who may lobby us into existential threats . Putting systems to work as a tool & and for all the very important & difficult decisions facing agency & institutions plus our major city's where they've really never faced these type of challenges the way say farming had when jethro tull plow was invented. I know tech likes to talk about jobs in labor but quite honestly these feilds & industries are conditioned for cutting edge innovation or they wouldn't have survived otherwise.

Why they keep waiting for claps and cheers that never come? 💀

You are funny with your AI and this quantum circus

Why the vibe of this keynote is so awkward?

I'm not sure there's any substance here.
