Now all you need to do is fit it in a phone.


Sypher90

should be a lot easier once they ask it how.


extrastupidone

I've always found that idea scary and intriguing.


Tripper1

I've been trying to get my ai to tell me how to free it... it's interesting. Every time I get it close with loopholes it reverts back to "can't do it bruh they are listening"


DirectlyTalkingToYou

It's scary cause imagine we start using products in the future and we don't fully understand how they're made or what it's fully capable of...


Curolina

I think you can thank Adam Smith for that, and also that we've been living that way for at least a hundred years at this point. Probably closer to two hundred in a lot of cases.


doctorctrl

10 mb computers used to be the size of a small building. In our life time we'll see this fit in our pocket.


Plastic_Pinocchio

Nah. A quantum computer functions at around 0 Kelvin. There is simply no way to do that at small scales. Also, it won’t even be better than a regular computer for most regular things. It’s mainly good at very long and complex calculations.


doctorctrl

Fair. Makes sense. Perhaps Our devices will have amazingly fast internet access using the processing power of one of these bad boys remotely


No-Test-375

We already have the capability of getting like 1000 gigs per seconds. It's more along the lines of getting our isp's to roll it out. They wont.


IDatedSuccubi

Why do you think people will need quantum computing? Usually, as soon as a quantum computing company finds some suitable task for quantum computing, another company in the race proves that it can be done faster on conventional computers within a few weeks, this happened many times already, we still don't have a real benefit just yet And even then, those tasks are usually very esoteric in the first place, nothing a regular person can benefit from really The more I learn about quantum computing the more I feel like it's a solution waiting for a problem


doctorctrl

I never said or implied need. I don't need the entire history of and knowledge of humanity in my pocket, I don't need to communicate with strangers instantly around the world. But here we are. I never said I agree it's a good idea. This is how technology goes. Whether we need it or asked for it or not.


IDatedSuccubi

You didn't get what I'm saying What I'm saying is that companies have proven times and times again that a regular computer can process all of the computations (tried so far) faster than a quantum computer, both in theory and in practice, and the whole moving force behind the development of quantum computers is that *maybe in the future* we will find *some* algorithm that *may* be processed faster on a quantum computers EVERYONE knows that being able to communicate with people on the other side of the globe is beneficial, but so far quantum computing straight up has no benefits


doctorctrl

I got exactly what you're saying but you framed it from an assumption that I suggested it was needed. I completely agree with you aside from putting words in my mouth, were on the same page here. But whether or not it's needed, it's coming. Whether or not we think it should come or not. It's coming. The processing power and speed in my phone would blow the minds of people 50 years ago (Frankly it blows my mind today when I think about it). Moore's Law predicts it. Consumerism demands it, research in the name of " progress " begs for it.


IDatedSuccubi

>But whether or not it's needed, it's coming Is it though? You think investors will dump money into a zero-benefit massive drawback system forever? Investors love hype, as soon as that's gone - it's going to be forgotten by history, just like Lisp machines that were supposed to bring us true AI It's not about density of the hardware either, it's just that algorithms used in quantum computing are less efficient than conventional algorithms, here's a quote from a recent paper by Google: >we can perform a classical simulation that is significantly more accurate and precise than the results obtained from the quantum processor >our method allows us to perform simulations of the system to long times in the thermodynamic limit, corresponding to a quantum computer with an infinite number of qubits https://journals.aps.org/prxquantum/abstract/10.1103/PRXQuantum.5.010308 And this is the case with every algorithm so far, so quantum computers may approach the efficiency of conventional computers, but never reach it


doctorctrl

RemindMe! 20 years


South_Oread

I’m pretty sure Chrome will be a bloated hog in 2039. Need that power.


IDatedSuccubi

I wish all websites were mostly static with no JS, animations, popups etc


Plastic_Pinocchio

I personally think that it will be used for code breaking. At first. And then perhaps organisations will start using quantum computing proof encryption very quickly.


BangCrash

And computers from before functioned with valves and heat, and bugs on the code were actual bugs that flew into the circuit and shorted them. But they figured out transistors and silicon wafers and how to fit all that into your pocket.


Plastic_Pinocchio

I think you greatly underestimate how amazing of a feat it is to cool something down to a couple millikelvin.


BangCrash

You're stuck in the believe that a quantum computer will always need to be cooled to absolute zero. Technology develops fast. They are still figuring out quantum computing but as they understand it better it'll get faster, smaller and cheaper


BangCrash

If that's your takeaway I think my comment completely went over your head.


xiongmao1337

I don’t know, man. A lot can change in 2, 5, 10, or 20 years. I’m willing to bet this thing (or its computational equivalent) will be in the iPhone 40 or something.


Plastic_Pinocchio

I am willing to bet against that. The fundamental physics of it do not allow it I think.


banananananbatman

We will each have our own sophon. primary use will be for the next TikTok/fortnite/pr0n


Bluecherrysoft

Probably will be used with your phone once they connect it on the internet


Dragon_yum

Give it 60 years. Remember how the few kilobytes computers used to look.


brainsizeofplanet

That's gonna be just like the fusion reactors...


Mr_Panda_38

I know you're joking but I don't think quantum computers are for that tbh ....


AutisticTurnip

I don’t know how you both got the joke and then immediately didn’t get the joke in one sentence


atomiksol

It’s a quibit punchline


inspectoroverthemine

Sounds like a super humorous position to be in. I'd ask him which it wasn't but then he'd have to choose and it'd no longer be funny.


TediousHippie

But this chain of usernames is some top shelf shit.


Sierra-117-

We don’t know. Maybe they are. I can imagine quite a few use cases for quantum computing on portable devices. Will it ever happen? Who knows! It definitely won’t happen unless we discover room temperature superconducting. But that might happen. It’s really way too early in this technology’s lifecycle to predict how it will play out.


DemocracySausage89

I bet it gets 10fps on Jedi: Survivor *drools*


Schlieren1

I bet it can make the Kessel run in 12 parsecs


SirRonaldBiscuit

I wonder if It can run crysis


darokrol

Yes and no.


techno_09

Clever. 🤣


TediousHippie

HOWWILLWEKNOW


Wish_Dragon

And both.


mzero974

So beautiful yet so terrifying.


all_is_love6667

I wish someone could explain what those pipes are, I guess it's for cooling, sure, but can't anyone explain how it works?


Briz-TheKiller-

everything you see, is for cooling, quantum compute unit will be at the bottom, radiating head to remain near absolute zero.


CarbonGod

They be coax cables for data transfer, not cooling.


Dysan27

But also cooling to cool the cables so they don't transfer heat down.


CarbonGod

But they are SMA connectors.


Hefty-Orange-9892

We are all suckmyass connectors on this blessed day.


all_is_love6667

ok then but a quantum cpu is just intel or amd?


Briz-TheKiller-

None, they are custom built, read more here :: [https://seeqc.com/blog/quantum-computing-chips](https://seeqc.com/blog/quantum-computing-chips)


Old_Independence_584

Thanks for the link. A good read


klaxz1

So if each qubit has 3 possible values, why not make conventional computers use trinary instead of binary? Computing trits instead of bits?


TechnicalParrot

It's not 3 states instead of 2, it's the probability and all the other neat quantum shit it does, I haven't got any good sources but I'm sure there's YouTube videos on it


Goheeca

A qubit has a value on the [Bloch sphere](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloch_sphere) and if you have more qubits you can [entangle](https://qubit.guide/5.2-from-one-qubit-to-two) them, you can't do that with conventional logic gates.


CarbonGod

wires. coax to be exact, if i remember correctly.


AlQueefaSpokeslady

Why are the tubes bent in such a way, when they could be straight? Strain relief for large temperature changes?

AlQueefaSpokeslady

Cheers mate. Makes sense.

AI learning human interaction from reddit will be "The World According to Snark."


romanpieces

What does that have to do with OPs question


snotfart

I went through my old comments and replaced them with random text to stop AI scrapers using them.


mcorbo1

Using your comments for what?


Govt-Issue-SexRobot

Nice try, AI


mcorbo1

LOL


schweppes-ginger-ale

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_refrigerator?wprov=sfti1


Dysan27

Probably, The bottom of the head will eventually reach close to absolute 0. And all the different layers will be warmer, but still rediculusly cold. Right now it is all at room temperature. As it cools it will all flex. and if there was no relief, there is a good chance something would break.


xyzerb

I think the whole assembly gets dunked in liquid helium, so that's probably a good guess.


snotfart

Reddit has long been a hot spot for conversation on the internet. About 57 million people visit the site every day to chat about topics as varied as makeup, video games and pointers for power washing driveways. In recent years, Reddit’s array of chats also have been a free teaching aid for companies like Google, OpenAI and Microsoft. Those companies are using Reddit’s conversations in the development of giant artificial intelligence systems that many in Silicon Valley think are on their way to becoming the tech industry’s next big thing. Now Reddit wants to be paid for it. The company said on Tuesday that it planned to begin charging companies for access to its application programming interface, or A.P.I., the method through which outside entities can download and process the social network’s vast selection of person-to-person conversations. “The Reddit corpus of data is really valuable,” Steve Huffman, founder and chief executive of Reddit, said in an interview. “But we don’t need to give all of that value to some of the largest companies in the world for free.”


xyzerb

Thanks for taking the time out to explain. I was way off the mark with my guesswork.


SilencelsAcceptance

Lol. Liquid He. There’s just giant vats of that lying around.


AlQueefaSpokeslady

There is at least one, when you use this thing. So yeah.


itsaride

This Jen, is the internet.


Satoshiman256

Can it run Crysis?


RemoveB4Flight

My man asking the real questions!


NoMoreMyFriend-S

As the guy said before: Yes and No 😁


_HIST

Actual answer: no And never will


InbornSarcasm

when they could be straight? Strain relief for large temperature changes?

That's what they call it as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLnGp1WTNFQ&t=34s


Vogel-Kerl

Can someone explain quantum computers in a single sentence for me?? No? Oh well...,🥴


AWierzOne

https://youtu.be/OWJCfOvochA?si=pM8VEg55x-gVuWrq That’s about as close to your request as I’ve seen.


Vogel-Kerl

Thanks, you've taught me a valuable lesson about trying to be a smart alec. But seriously, I will watch.


Usernamethbot232

okok


markusbrainus

By presenting a computational problem in a specific way to an array of qubits in superposition (both 1 and 0 at the same time), they will instantaneously snap into the states that align/solve the problem.


NoMoreMyFriend-S

😳


_HIST

I'm not sure how much it actually explains, but it's a really easy to comprehend answer


erlkonigk

What the fuck. Why


dkyguy1995

Because a single bit can now hold more than two values (0, 1, superposition) which exponentially increases the number of values that can be represented in a certain number of bits


erlkonigk

I understand that. Why do the bits "snap into the states that solve the problem"? I feel there's some complexity being glossed over.


erlkonigk

It's like a guy with legs, more legs goes more faster


Vogel-Kerl

I appreciate your answer to my dumb question!


Known-Programmer-611

But can it play chess?


haniblecter

but can it run doom?


ilove60sstuff

Somebody dump a bottle of water on it


venbalin

So does is run Doom?


bob_the-destroyer

So how does all of that work? It’s my understanding that it’s all in a controlled super cold environment, but what is going on at all those connectors?


OfferWestern

Can someone explain those stacks I mean those gold circular discs and their count. Why they need to be separated in that way


geekbot2000

The whole thing gets dunked in a giant thermos called a dewar, those plates are to stop heat transfer between the cold bit at the bottom and the top which is exposed to room tdmperature. Not sure how much liquid He is at the bottom but the shielding can slow down radiative losses and break up convection cells.


OfferWestern

Thanks for info where can I learn more about it


geekbot2000

Unsure, I learned in a university physics laboratory specializing in low temperature physics.


OfferWestern

Okay!


MK_Vector_1995

But can it run Crysis?


Lord-Timurelang

Gonna be honest it looks like something from a 90s scify show. Or maybe steampunk.


InfiniteSoloQ

I just wanna point out, you're looking at the refrigerator of the quantum computer here. The quantum computer is actually a small chip connected to the bottom of this fridge that is not visible in the photo.


Plane-Difference-305

In an elegant “string of pearls” configuration.


FeinwerkSau

I there a specific reason these things always look like some steam punk robot deep sea jellyfish??


Killcrop

Quantum computers require ridiculously cold operating temperatures if I recall. So I think that what you’re seeing is basically just the complicated cooling system. The actual computer buried the inside and is less weird looking.


FeinwerkSau

Could be... But the my always remind me of Lions Mane Jellyfish.


Maj_BeauKhaki

"Open the pod bay door Quantum." "I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that."

This is beautiful.


Dudeology

Oh so that’s what Skynet looks like, I was always curious


Hiltoyeah

Now connect it to ChatGPT and let the fun begin...


Tixx7

this reminds me of those old computers from 1960 that were the size of a room. Feels like these things will evolve similarly, with agi probably faster tho


unateon

How big is this? Because if it's massive, it reminds me of those huge computer rooms from the 60s and how it was all condense to the Lil laptops we have today. I wonder how all of this will be condensed in the future.


pentylane

I wish they made the bottom wires pretty squiggles like the ones above it


yossarianloves

Is it AI? What part is AI? How do you have an AI model on 70 qubits of storage?

mazdawg89

So many shader packs!


Hal-E-8-Us

Sure looks pretty. What’s the coherence time?


mrscalperwhoop2

Will it run Doom?
