Delving into quantum computing concepts like superposition and uncertainty, this chapter explores the mind-bending aspects of quantum physics through scenarios like Schrodinger's cat and quantum entanglement. It contrasts quantum mechanics with traditional physics and discusses the implications for communication and information exchange. The chapter also touches on the race to develop quantum computers and the potential impact on encryption methods and data security.
Could quantum computing solve the three-body problem? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedians Jordan Klepper and Tiffany Haddish discuss how quantum computing will change the world with theoretical physicist Michio Kaku live at the Beacon Theater.
