Google Computer Solves Septillion-Year Task in Minutes

Alphabet’s quantum computer needs just five minutes to solve a problem that would take supercomputers around 10 septillion years. Google’s next task: coming up with an actual use for all that theoretical power. Google Quantum AI founder Hartmut Neven joins Caroline Hyde on “Bloomberg Technology.” ——– Like this video?

    !!I am at the beginning of my “investment journey”, planning to put 385K into dividend stocks so that I will be making up to 30% annually in dividend returns. any good recommendation on great performing stocks or Crypto will be appreciated..

      I don’t really blame people who panic. Lack of
      information can be a big hurdle. I’ve been
      making more than $200k passively by just
      investing through an advisor, and I don’t have
      to do much work.. Inflation or no inflation, my
      finances remain secure. So I really don’t blame
      people who panic.

      how would you recommend i enter the crypto market? I am also looking at studying some traders and copying their strategy rather than investing myself and losing money emotionally. What’s your take on this approach? and How can i reach her, if you don’t mind me asking??

      For me, it makes the historical documentation all that sweeter. He looks like he’s dressed for what the past thought the future would look like and then in the future they’ll see him here talking about the technology that helps birth that future fully dressed like a time traveler.

      Quantum chips are not GPUs. It’s a different topic.
      Quantum computer might be very beneficial for the research and science field. The faster we can make new discoveries, the faster businesses can commercialize them.

    Our problems are caused by a lack of action, not by a lack of tech. The solution is strong political leadership. Tech is often used as a distraction.

      The term Ai is now ubiquitous with machine learning. We are yet to discover AGI, which probably is the AI you are referring to.

    I’m seeing a lot of bad takes in the comments, so here’s the bottom line: Quantum computing solves very specific problems different from normal computing. No, quantum computing won’t take your job any more than a screwdriver replaces a hammer.

      That can never happen because they are in finite number. Even if you mine them all, they will still have a value. Sure it will crash because there won’t be a practical day to day transactional use for them, but they will still retain the value as a alternate money exchange mechanism.

Down rounds carry a stigma, but they’re not always the end of a startup’s story.

Charles Hudson of Precursor Ventures shares an example of a company that survived a difficult fundraising process involving a down round and investor-friendly terms. It wasn’t easy, but making the hard financing decision ultimately gave the company a chance to keep building.

For founders, the lesson is simple: The best fundraising outcome isn’t always the highest valuation — it’s the one that keeps your business alive.
