It From Qubits?
Universality of quantum computation assures us that such a technology and artificial intelligence in general must be possible. By the way there is no reason to believe that a universal quantum computer would be required for such simulations. See Tegmark 2000. The world is not made of information okay he goes on to say quote. Let us suppose that universality does hold in all four of the above sensors then since every physical system can be fully described as a collection of qubits it is natural to wonder whether this can be taken further. One of the few things that we think we know about the quantum theory of gravity is expressed in the so-called Beckenstein bound. We have some evidence in its favor too
