I Found A Planet

Hellfire planet.

Big pit base.

The artificial intelligence Nuwa transported the alien spacecraft on Mars back without damage.

Around various advanced technologies on alien spacecraft, the artificial intelligence Nuwa and Alice have invested considerable resources in research.

Combined with the scientific and technological information you have mastered.

It took several months.

Recently, a major scientific research achievement-quantum computer has finally been achieved.

A 128-bit quantum computer.

Only 128 bits?

Isn't this amount a bit too small?

In fact, the 128-bit here is similar to the "bit" in the "32/64-bit operating system", referring to a maximum of 128 qubits that can be operated at a time.

And inside the refrigerator-sized "quantum computer" in front of Chen Jin, there are at least trillions of light quanta.

It is just that a maximum of 128 entangled state quantum can be manipulated at one time, and a series of calculations can be performed.

"Nuwa, Alice, as far as I know, the computing power of a quantum computer is 2 to the Nth power, that is, how many entangled state quanta can be manipulated at the same time, and the computing power can reach the power of 2. What is your quantum computer? 128 bits, the computing power is 128 squares of 2..."

"Speaking of which, how much is 2 to the 128th power?"

Chen Jin looked at the two artificial intelligences in front of him and said.

"It is equal to 3.4028 times 10 to the 38th power, which is 340.28 trillion trillion times. This calculation speed is 340 million times that of Alice and me." Nuwa said.

Lying grass~

Chen Jin opened his mouth wide: "A device this small is equivalent to more than 300 million devices for you and Alice?"

Quantum computers are awesome!

"It can be understood in this way, but quantum computers cannot completely replace traditional computers. Its advantages lie in some special areas of mathematical calculations, such as factorization, solving logarithms, cracking complex encryption systems, establishing molecular models, and being used in particle physics. , and even the rendering of game collision effects...it is a very powerful tool, but it is not a panacea, and its functions should not be overly exaggerated."

"Why can't it be done? I remember some scientists said that quantum computers can do everything." Chen Jin was very puzzled.

"That's just commercial exaggeration."

Nüwa explained: "The situation on Haierfa planet is similar. In the early stage of quantum technology development, as long as it enters the microscopic scale, it seems that everything can be linked to the word 'quantum', such as quantum water, quantum TV, quantum air purifier... Countless quantum products have emerged, but they have nothing to do with quantum, they are just a hype concept, and have nothing to do with real quantum technology.”

"The real power of quantum computers is that it is used for data processing, and secondly, it is used for communication encryption, and other aspects are lackluster."

"To give a simple example, a traditional computer is composed of three parts: a storage unit, a control unit, and a calculation unit, but quantum cannot store data because its state is a superposition of 0 and 1, which is an uncertain form, while Our data is deterministic, and we can only use traditional media to store data."

"Of course we can add a 'quantum computing module' on the basis of a traditional computer, which can actually be called a 'quantum computer', and it is indeed much stronger than an independent traditional computer."

"So Alice and I are both 'quantum computers' now, because both of us have added several 'quantum computing modules'."

Hearing Nuwa's teasing words.

Chen Jin had a look of embarrassment on his face.

Quantum computing is actually not complicated, but many pseudo-experts and commercial organizations, for their own benefit, insist on explaining this very complicated, which makes people feel very tall, as if quantum is omnipotent.

However, there is no question of who will replace the classical computer and the quantum computer. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. The two can learn from each other and complement each other. The emergence of quantum computers will not cause classical The decline or obsolescence of computers.

The two will coexist forever.

Of course, the power of quantum computers cannot be denied, because most of the problems in this world can be attributed to mathematical problems in the end.

The essence of this universe is mathematics!

Today, the mathematical computing capabilities of the artificial intelligence Nvwa and Alice have both increased by 340 million times. This will undoubtedly have a huge role in promoting the development of the Dakeng base and the development of Hellfa Planet.

Even save a lot of energy.

For example, Nu Wa and Alice, after loading the quantum computing module, since most of the complex calculations are handed over to the quantum computing module, the energy consumption of both has been reduced by more than 50%.

The speed of scientific research in various fields will also be significantly accelerated.

But Chen Jin was still not satisfied.

"Nuwa, isn't it a bit small to manipulate 128 qubits at the same time? Why can't it be increased to 256 or 512? Wouldn't the computing power be even more exaggerated?"

"128 is enough for the master."

Nüwa explained: "The more qubits there are, the faster the decoherence (that is, exiting the entanglement state) will be, and the lower the error correction accuracy of the error correction code will be. 128 qubits are almost just right, and they can hold themselves well. , and the error correction rate is over 99%, reaching the best balance.”

"The quantum module in the computer on the alien spaceship is even only 64-bit. In the small-scenario usage mode, brain chip people think that 64-bit is basically enough, and the 128-bit quantum computer can solve almost all mathematical problems. It's enough... at least for now."

Chen Jin nodded.

At present, it is indeed enough. If it is found that it is not enough later, we will find a way to develop a higher-level quantum computer.

With quantum computers,

The Dakeng base has broken through the bottleneck of computing power, which is equivalent to having unlimited "computing power".

This means that the work progress of all projects will be greatly accelerated.

suddenly.

Think of one thing.

Chen Jin muttered to himself: "It seems that on the other side of the earth, every powerful country is developing quantum computers. This year this country has broken through 10 qubits, and next year that country has broken through 20. As long as it can reach 50, it will be announced. Quantum hegemony... The country that is closest to achieving quantum hegemony at present is country Z, and it is said that it has broken through to 39 countries, and quantum hegemony is close at hand."

And he also found that in the field of quantum computing, the development on the earth seems to be particularly fast, and the performance is very impressive.

Alice disdainfully said: "This kind of hegemony is just laboratory hegemony, and it doesn't make much sense. Some countries on Haierfa planet also obtained quantum hegemony very early, and even reached a maximum of 198 qubits, but after a long time , Commercial quantum computers can only process 32 qubits at the same time; 50 qubits have not been reached after two hundred years... The prospect of quantum technology is very bright, but it is difficult to commercialize quantum computers with more than 64 bits. "

It can't even catch up with the growth rate of computing power of traditional computers.

So stay in the laboratory for a long time.

"real or fake?"

Chen Jin was a little surprised that a technology with such a bright future would actually stay in the laboratory stage for a long time?

However, he still decided to set up a "quantum computing research center" on the other side of the earth, and strive to produce a commercial quantum computer with more than 50 qubits within one or two years... Quantum hegemony, he will take it away.

It seems that I am going to wither today, I will struggle again later
