Thinking On Paper: A Technology Podcast For Curious Minds Book Club: Quantum Supremacy - Silicon Photonic To D-Wave, This Is Why All Quantum Computers Are Not The Same
Join us as we read Michio Kaku’s Quantum Supremacy and uncover the diverse landscape of quantum computing. Spoiler alert: not all quantum computers are created equal. From IBM’s superconducting systems to China's photonic models and Microsoft's innovations, we explore the unique approaches that different companies are taking. Michio Kaku, a leading theoretical physicist and bestselling author, guides us through the transformative potential of quantum technology in this enlightening episode.
-- Michio Kaku is a renowned theoretical physicist, futurist, and bestselling author. He is a professor of theoretical physics at the City College of New York and a co-founder of string field theory.
Known for his ability to make complex scientific concepts accessible to the general public, Kaku has authored several popular science books, including “The God Equation” and “The Future of the Mind.” In this book, “Quantum Supremacy: How the Quantum Computer Revolution Will Change Everything,” Kaku explores the transformative potential of quantum computing.
