A peek at the early days of the Quantum AI Lab: a partnership between NASA, Google, USRA, and a 512-qubit D-Wave Two quantum computer. Learn more at http://google.com/+QuantumAILab
Last May, in partnership with NASA, we announced the Quantum A.I. Lab, a
place where researchers from around the world can experiment with the
incredible powers and possibilities of quantum computing.
We’re still in the early, early days, but we think quantum computing can
help solve some of the world’s most challenging computer science problems.
We’re particularly interested in how quantum computing can advance machine
learning, which can then be applied to virtually any field: from finding
the cure for a disease to understanding changes in our climate.
As the team began working together this past summer, we decided to shoot
some footage and put together a short video that provides a peek behind the
scenes and introduces a few of quantum computing’s mind-bending, strange,
and undeniably awesome concepts.
If you’re curious about quantum computing, just follow this page for
updates, discussions about new research, and videos from our monthly
speaker series.
Can it run Minecraft?
Why does EVERY science related video end up with endless debate in the
comments about God? Please shut the fuck up about God!! It’s not that I as
an agnostic am not interested in God, but you all damn well know that we
will never prove or disprove the existence of God. It’s an endless debate
which will never be resolved! So please, spend your energy on something
more productive. And don’t do it for me. Just do it because this is
becoming just plainly pathetic.
Lol this reminds me of Aperture science a lot. First I see old fasioned
filmstrip like video, about making an artificial intelligence, then I hear
a similar quote: “We do because we must.”
Things I don’t understand fascinates me….
1 + 1 = maybe
“Theorizing that one could time travel within his own lifetime, Dr. Sam
Beckett stepped into the quantum leap accelerator and vanished. He awoke to
find himself trapped in the past, facing mirror images that were not his
own, and driven by an unknown force to change history for the better. His
only guide on this journey is Al, an observer from his own time, who
appears in the form of a hologram that only Sam can see and hear. And so,
Dr. Beckett finds himself leaping from life to life, striving to put right
what once went wrong, and hoping each time that his next leap will be the
leap home.”

There’s something about that guy in the chair….he really pisses ME OFF
But will it run Crysis 3 at 60 Fps?
This whole thing about quantum computing and quantum mechanics seem so
interesting to me. I try to do some research to be able to understand it,
But the more i read the more i get lost. It could be due to the fact that
we dont know much about it, or maybe i need to go back to school and study
physics or something related to that field.
Yeah, that thing is not a quantum computer. But it’s a good thing people
are thinking. Still, not a quantum computer. And it shouldn’t be used as a
poster boy for one, because then that can undermine the development of
actual quantum computers.
You go Google & NASA take the Quantum LeapI I think quantum computers are
so cool I am going to name my next cat Qubit! :)
aperture sience confirmed
I am just amazed that the worlds first Quantum Computer didn’t take up an
entire building like the first computer did!
Back when I was young, quantum computers used to fill a whole room! Now
you youngsters blithely carry them around in your pockets. You take
everything for granted! You god damned kids just take take take!
Ahem, just practicing.
Very cool that they’re doing this, but I don’t like the way they talk about
multiverses as being on scientific grounds with well-established effects
such as quantum tunneling and entanglement. Also, the quote in the
beginning stems from Niels Bohr, not Richard Feynman..
For some people out there that don’t understand when something is both a 1
and 0 that make 3 options possible (1, 0, and then mixed) instead of 2 (1
and 0), that also means that it has the possibility of “reading” multiple
things literally at the same time for example instead of it having to
“read” 8-16 numbers to “understand” something it only has to “read” 1-3 for
the same amount of information. Plus it can literally predict what its
going to be “told” to do, in other words it know what to do before
“reading” the actual code.
quantum computing
D-Wave has doubled the number of Q-bits their (questionably) quantum
computer chip can handle. At some point, Quantum computers will out-think
people in ways we can barely imagine. Here’s a flashy video to illustrate:

questionably a quantum “computer”:

I don’t care what they say as long as they don’t say my accord belongs to
them
Kanye West video’s get 100 million views in months, this barely 1 mil in
over a year..
The way we think, is not a “standard” way of thinking. A lot of animals on
this planet think faster and can remember longer than humans. Now imagine
that if you were born, the whole universe would have been different. A
universe without light, without gravity, without anything we know. The
universe we are in right now, is not a “standard” universe. It is not that
it was all meant to be like this. We are in this universe, so we are also
RANDOM. Our way of thinking is a complete random way of thinking. We could
have thought in very different ways, that we can not imagine.
Machines are nothing but physical objects. Even if computers could become
more intelligent than humans, it could be in a very different way. The fact
that they could speak like us or solve OUR problems faster, doesn’t mean
anything about their intelligence, it only means something compared to our
intelligence, so since our intelligent is RANDOM, we can never measure
intelligence from a “standard” perspective. (Sorry for my english)
