In this episode, Andrew and Mike dig into the intriguing world of quantum computing, focusing on D-Wave, a Canadian pioneer in the field. We discuss some strangeness around its founder Geordie Rose, and explore the various applications of D-Wave's technology, including military, surveillance, and pharmaceutical pursuits. The conversation touches on the implications of AI in our current society, and the philosophical questions surrounding parallel universes and Lovecraftian themes. We wrap it up by reflecting on Geordie Rose's predictions (from 2013) for the future of technology and the societal changes that may arise as AI continues to evolve. How many did he get right? Tune in to find out!
