Quantum Computing...Worlds Fastest Computers...here we come!!!
PARIS (AFP) - Researchers in Australia said on Sunday they had made with pinpoint accuracy a working transistor consisting of a single atom, marking a major stride towards next-generation, quantum computers.

Kind of makes you think that when they get really moving with this development then the whole human race might just end up like a great big ants nest!

Or is this the early onset of the BORG race?

You think?

It has been the standard that it takes just 18 months for each generation of computer advancement to be made redundant..

it has a name , I just cant recall it just now.

but really

just let your imaginations run loose for a bit and have a think where this could go...

brain implants...

tv connections with all sences connected...

blindnes being eliminated...

deafness being eliminated

all bodily functions being restored...and controlled, maybe from a central point...


these possibilities WILL become tomorrows probabilities..

Trust me...

Havent you all seen enough to already appreciate all this?

Re: Quantum Computing...Worlds Fastest Computers...here we come!!!
Another step closer. Yesterday there was a story about error correction in qbits by a computer science person. A week ago there was a material science story about I/O speeds on a material the would be ideal for quantum computing.

So if you can get data to and from qbits, correct the qbits in error, and do calculations with them. You have a quantum computer.

All that's lacking is a q-bit based Operating system. If you are intelligent and want to be the next bill gates, get to it!

Can you explain a bit more? Or perhaps, what would be your wild guess to how a "q-bit based Operating system" would work or loosely what would it's architecture could maybe look like?

Obviously very hypothetical!

Re: Quantum Computing...Worlds Fastest Computers...here we come!!!
Calling this quantum computing is false. It works independently of quantum theory, the principal (and I can tell you this without even reading the article) is the ionization of a single atom being used to store data digitally.

Ionization is the process of converting an atom or molecule into an ion by adding or removing charged particles such as electrons .

This computer will have atoms that are ions to represent 0 and atoms that are neutral to represent 1 (or vice versa).

To call this quantum computing and to continue to insist that any type of computing is based on quantum theory is a lie. This is simple chemistry and electronics. And I don't see how this will effect the speed of the computations, maybe by shortening the distance the electronic signals have to travel, but again, calling it quantum computing is plain adulterated bullshit


What I want to see is how they are going to LINK these atoms electronically with a conductor. I'm not saying it can't be done, but I am saying this compactness of data storage is many years in the future and is much more compact than the human brain by a factor of thousands of times, or anything that exists at this time..

All these experimenters have really done is find a material that possesses single atoms that are stable ions, that ionizes and stays ionized until the charge is intentionally removed.

They have a LONG way to go before they have an operational storage media, and may never be able to accomplish it because as I said all of the atoms used to store data will need to be linked electrically and it's no piece of cake. You could end up having conductors consisting of single strands of atoms but that is a technical impossibility and it won't be 18 months, more like 20 years if at all before this can be done. What you are describing is making a computer that is thousands of times as compact as natures best design through billions of years of evolutionary development. Good luck. All we've been able to do so far is come close to the compactness of the human brain and these computers are not on the market and highly unreliable.

this is exactly where all the collection of accumulated data will come together.

it might be a bit out of this scenario but, bloody hell its close.


Beware... is all I can offer as a comment..

we are travelling that road at breakneck speeds and there are people who have vested interests in all those outcomes...

dont be fooled.

If it was up to a simple answer, Id say dissconnect from the internet and go back to previous ways of communicating...but of course we wont be doing that, but rest assured, there are those who watch us all the time and they do plan, manipulate and execute their adgendas, all without you or me knowingly being aware of their influences.

One day I will get a bullet in the back of my head because I'm proud to to be here as a registered user rather than hiding behind the "anon coward" title.

Well with the several above replies I really hope that you are all correct.

The thing is I have been waiting for some time now for this type of news to surface.

Eventually it inevedibally will, it is the direction all the research does try to accomplish.

Today, I may be out of order and hell yes, I hope I am.

But, sometime in the future this will be our reality.

My saying appropriate to this is....


So..you are smart enough to know how to do it...

So with the qbits ON, OFF, and "I'll decide later" states. It will let computers think for themselves, like humans.
