Episode notes
Fourth Industrial Revolution
- The world is changing due to advancements in quantum computing.
- We are entering the fourth industrial revolution, marked by artificial intelligence and quantum computers.
Quantum Physics vs. Newtonian Mechanics
- Quantum physics governs the microscopic world, unlike Newtonian mechanics for larger objects.
- Quantum transistors, based on atoms, have infinite states compared to traditional transistors' two, promising immense computing power.
Newtonian vs. Quantum Mechanics
- Newtonian mechanics describes the common sense world of large objects.
- Quantum mechanics governs the microscopic world of atoms, differing from Newtonian mechanics.
