- David Deutsch, the physcist who pioneered the idea of quantum computing, thinks that it would be feasible to build practical quantum computers in a matter of a decade or two.
majakka rated 19 months ago- From the page: "How does quantum computation shed light on the existence of many worlds? Say we decide to factorise a 10,000-digit integer, the product of two very large primes. That number cannot be expressed as a product of factors by any conceivable classical computer. Even if you took all the matter in the observable universe and turned it into a computer and then ran that computer for the age of the universe, it wouldn't come close to scratching the surface of factorising that number. But a quantum computer could factorise that easily in seconds or minutes. How can that happen?"
