    It's the first time in my life I understand what a genius is talking about. That guy has a real talent for explaining complex subjects and making it accessible to regular people.

      Someone should put him in a room with people less knowledgeable on the topic, and then pay him to explain it to them. I think it could help a lot of people get smarter.

      "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough (Albert Einstein)". This guy is the physical embodiment of that quote. He understands his area of research extremely well to the point where he can convey the information as an abstract concept that a group of people who are not a PHD in math and physics could still understand it. He's not just repeating equations from a text book, he's making this his own.

      He is also obviously very passionate about his work, and this is something I always tell younger engineers--find something you're passionate about. I've been in engineering a couple of decades and I've seen a lot of engineers who chase the money, and hey I can't blame anyone--we all would like more money... but doing something you really believe in is rewarding in a completely different (and I feel even better) way.

      Yeah same to me, but when i then look into another key feature of a qubit "Entanglement" that two or more quantum particles can be linked toghether even by a large distanse, it all became fuzzy again for me :-)

    I put off watching this video for quite a while because, well, 1 1/2 hours. But since watching it, I have to say this was one of the most amazing videos I've seen. I learned a lot. What's really fascinating is that Dave kept bombarding Professor Morello with tons of 'really specific' difficult questions, and without skipping a beat, he had an instant and easily understandable answer to all of them. He's also given me an appreciation for why this stuff is so difficult and why quantum computers have yet to become mainstream.

      Views over a few hundred thousand is more a hint for bad loud screaming "trash" or "i am so better than you", that ugly " look how stupied this... is" Videos, that simple and dangerous " political" solutions videos and that millions of simple hate or "cute cats and kids" videos.

    This is an absolutely fascinating topic, and a brilliant communicator delivering it in an understandable way. He really does lay things out in a very straightforward and comprehensible way, especially when dealing with highly abstract and esoteric concepts that people typically misexplain or oversimplify. I would happily watch many more hours of this gentleman describing concepts.

    The insightful understanding of Professor Morello is profound and his communication in such a mix of complex subjects is brilliant - in fact so good that even I absorbed parts of it, and I was also impressed by your intelligent questions Dave. IMHO, Quantum physics and computation are such a foundation to all things, that currently we have little/no idea where they are going to take us.

I discovered his brilliance 10 years ago when Veritsium did a series of videos about quantum theory featuring Dr Morello which showcased his excellent teaching skills. Even though he has a deep theoretical knowledge of he physics he also connects this to the realworld engineering and practically.

What I appreciate the most: quantum computers do need very very good classical computers to reduce errors. Finally the best and useful point of this stunning post. Btw Aussie research has nothing to envy other nations'. Good news Aussies!

      It doesn't translate into anything sensible. You have to figure out a trick, every time. It's not general purpose in the slightest. Quantum computers extract money from investors, nothing more. Nothing has ever been done with a quantum computer. Literally nothing, ever.

    @MusicBent 11 месяцев назад +1

    Fascinating video! Professor Andrea Morello is clearly one of the few people globally who are inventing and moving the entire field of quantum computing forward.
    So his setup has 4 qbits, 8 output possibilities, and requires 7 phase coherent ~40 GHz signals to use. He says we need 100-1000 really well behaved qbits to do something practical like medicine molecular research. Each well behaved qbit will have some sort of triple redundancy, so either 1000 raw qbits -> 333 usable qbits, of for 1000 usable qbits we need 3000 qbits. I don’t quite catch which it would be. Each of those will need its own 40 GHz x the number of levels per… plus all the classical electronics like FPGAs and compute and storage….. a true functional quantum computer like that would be massive!
    Seeing how stable and repeatable his silicon based setup is, I can see this actually being possible in the not too distant future! It seems like one of the remaining challenges is designing and building the system around all the qbits. RF, power, FPGAs, refrigeration, magnets, etc.
