Exploring how electrons exist in multiple states until measured, touching on quantum mechanics, the role of measurement, and the practical applications like the atomic bomb. The chapter underscores the need for extreme cooling in operating quantum computers effectively, reminiscing on the past days of large computer systems requiring separate rooms for cooling.
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.
