Listen Later

Fernando Dominguez Pinuaga shares his journey from energy systems to Google X, where he learned to think in true moonshot scale before joining SandboxAQ. At the crossroads of AI and quantum physics, he leads initiatives that are redefining cybersecurity and scientific computing.He explains how adversaries are already stealing encrypted information today through store-now, decrypt-later attacks — making quantum-era risk a current problem, not a future one. Fernando outlines the path toward crypto-agility, encryption inventorying, and modernization strategies that governments, banks, and enterprises must now adopt.Beyond security, he highlights the rise of physics-based AI models capable of accelerating breakthroughs in drug discovery, materials science, energy systems, and financial modeling — areas where classical AI struggles. Fernando frames this moment as the beginning of a new computational era, where quantum principles and AI jointly shape the next industrial wave.
