As modern computers reach their limits of processing power, quantum computing is starting to offer hope.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The computers we use today have been a driving force in the world for decades, but there are certain problems that they will simply never be able to solve.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Quantum computers are incredibly powerful machines that take a new approach to processing information.<\/p><\/div>\n

Consider the caffeine molecule in a cup of coffee. Surprisingly, it\u2019s complex enough that no computer that exists or could be built would be capable of modeling caffeine and fully understanding its detailed structure and properties.<\/p>\n

This is the type of challenge quantum does has the potential to tackle.<\/p>\n

Quantum computers work faster than traditional computers\u2014they may for some applications but not for others\u2014but that they will work fundamentally differently. Actually, these machines will be an engineering challenge.<\/p>\n

Quantum for all: Welcome to the future<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Quantum computer is not anymore science fiction and traditional computing companies are exploring the technology. Hewlett-Packard is trying to build its own machine<\/a>. Google is taking part<\/a> too. Intel\u2019s global quantum investments<\/a> include $50m going into work at QuTech, the Netherlands\u2019 national quantum-technology hub.<\/p>\n

Microsoft\u2019s topological quantum approach<\/a>, if it works, will be much less error-prone. Researchers from Yale and the University of Maryland have spun off companies, and physicists who had worked at IBM and America\u2019s Department of Energy have started their own firms.<\/p>\n

Not only companies are looking out what quantum computing can offer, the startup scene is also becoming increasingly vibrant and governments are considering viable too.<\/p>\n

Australia\u2019s has invested 20 millions in a laboratory at the University of New South Wales<\/a> in Sydney.<\/p>\n

Google has created what they call the Quantum Artificial Intelligence Lab,2<\/sup><\/a> where they\u2019re exploring using our computer for AI applications or learning applications. And NASA has a whole set of problems that they\u2019re investigating, ranging from doing things like looking for exoplanets to [solving] logistic problems and things like that, as McKinsey Global Institute<\/strong><\/a> revealed.<\/p>\n

Quantum computers could be exponentially faster at running artificial-intelligence programs and handling complex simulations and scheduling problems. They could even create uncrackable encryption.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
