Episode description

Technological visionaries predict that in the next two decades, quantum computers will replace the traditional computers that have been accompanying us in our homes and workplaces since the 20th century (we are not talking about the first mechanical computer of 1822, of course, but rather the ones considered personal computers for home use).

Now, in a surprising announcement, Google claims to have achieved 'quantum supremacy' by developing a new quantum computer capable of instantly solving tasks that would take current supercomputers about 47 years to complete.

Quantum computing is an innovative technology with the potential to revolutionize how we process information.

The concept of quantum computing dates back to the early 1980s, when physicists like Richard Feynman and David Deutsch began exploring the possibilities of harnessing the principles of quantum mechanics to perform complex calculations.
