Quantum Computing Part 2: Entanglement, Einstein’s Skepticism, and the Future of Computing


Listen Later

In this second part of our Foresight Radio deep dive into Quantum Computing, host Thomas Koulopoulos explores the spooky and mind-bending aspects of quantum mechanics, including entanglement, a phenomenon that even Einstein struggled to accept.
Joining Tom are top quantum researchers and experts:
🔹 Aditya Jain (PhD Student, Institute of Quantum Computing, Waterloo) – Breaking down quantum entanglement and what Einstein got wrong
🔹 Carol Lynn Alpert (Harvard University & Museum of Science, Boston) – How we’re building the quantum workforce of the future
🔹 Calvin Leung (MIT & SpaceX) – Why quantum computers will revolutionize materials science, drug discovery, and chemistry
Key Topics:
⚛️ How quantum entanglement challenges everything we know about reality
⚛️ Why Feynman’s vision for quantum computing is coming to life
⚛️ How quantum computers simulate nature in ways classical computers never could
⚛️ The real-world timeline for when quantum will impact business, AI, and technology
We’re on the cusp of a computing revolution—one that may redefine how we model the universe, medicine, AI, and even human intelligence. Are you ready to embrace the quantum future?
