This episode breaks down the future of quantum computing with guest Dr. Peter Rhode who is a Senior Quantum Researcher at global tech company BTQ, honorary Senior Lecturer at Macquarie University and co host of The Quantum State and Terminally Quantum Podcast
Dr Rhode explains that quantum computing takes advantage of new physical rules introduced by quantum physics, such as superposition, to build computers that can outperform classical computers in certain circumstances.
The conversation also covers the hype and investment in quantum computing, potential applications and limitations, geopolitical considerations, and the development of post-quantum cryptography.
Takeaways
- Quantum computing exploits the additional degrees of freedom in physics introduced by quantum physics to build computers that can outperform classical computers in certain circumstances.
- Large-scale quantum computers with error correction are still a long way off due to significant engineering challenges.
- Quantum computing has the potential to revolutionize fields such as materials engineering and simulation of quantum systems.
- The development of post-quantum cryptography is crucial to ensure the security of public key cryptography in the face of future quantum attacks.
- Geopolitical considerations and government regulations play a significant role in the development and use of quantum computing technology.
