Up next, Michio Kaku: The Universe in a Nutshell (Full Presentation) ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NbBjNiw4tk
What if everything we know about computing is on the verge of collapsing? Physicist Michio Kaku explores the next wave that could render traditional tech obsolete: Quantum computing.
Quantum computers, Kaku argues, could unlock the secrets of life itself: and could allow us to finally advance Albert Einstein’s quest for a theory of everything.
