0:00.0 | Hi, we're here from Curiosity.com to help you get smarter in just a few minutes. |
0:04.9 | I'm Cody Gough. |
0:05.8 | And I'm Ashley Hamer. |
0:06.9 | Today you learn about why luck is predictable and how you can make yourself luckier. |
0:11.3 | But first, you'll learn about what's next for Quantum Computers |
0:14.2 | with some help from Chris Bernhardt author of the new book Quantum Computing |
0:18.2 | for everyone. Let's satisfy some curiosity. It's time for the second half of our |
0:22.2 | two-part Quantum Wednesdays mini-series. |
0:25.0 | Last week we talked about Cubits and Entanglement, |
0:28.0 | which are two core concepts to help you understand quantum computers. |
0:32.0 | Once you understand those two ideas, then you can |
0:34.4 | start playing around with quantum computers. And that is pretty exciting. |
0:39.2 | Chris Bernhardt is a professor of mathematics at Fairfield University and the author of the new book |
0:44.0 | Quantum Computing for everyone and here's what he says we hope to actually do with |
0:48.2 | quantum computers now that we have them. One of the really exciting things is that IBM has put a quantum computer in the cloud and anyone can play |
0:59.2 | with it. |
1:00.2 | Anyone can interact with it. |
1:01.2 | It's got a nice graphical interface. So the way I see things moving |
1:05.5 | forward now are that we're going to have teenagers at high school, they'll learn a little |
1:10.0 | bit about quantum computing and they'll actually be able to play with a |
1:12.6 | quantum computer and what they'll do I mean you know it's difficult to tell I mean |
1:17.3 | but once you once you got a tool and you start experimenting there's going to be |
