Christmas episode!!In this Christmas episode, Kai - The Quantum Kid - explores what happens when quantum computing meets robotics. With:- John Preskill, Caltech theoretical physicist, who coined the term 'quantum supremacy', and - Ken Goldberg, US Berkley robotics expertwe discuss how quantum computers could help robots make smarter decisions and solve problems faster, and what this could mean for the future of intelligent machines. We also talk about uncertainty - both in the context of quantum and in the context of robotics. Oh, and Kai also teleports to a super cool robotics lab in Zurich, ANYbotics, and meets ANYmal - a robot dog that can walk and climb stairs, and can be go where it's dangerous for humans to go. And, as Kai puts it, 'it's veeeeeryyyy cute!' Quantum computers don’t just calculate faster. They think differently. Could that give robots new abilities? 👇 Now your turn:- How do you think robots might use quantum computers?- What should robots be able to do that they can’t do today?- Would you trust a quantum-powered robot?💬 Leave a comment — Kai reads them and may answer yours in the next episode!👍 If you enjoyed this video, like it so more people can find it🔔 Subscribe to The Quantum Kid for more episodes on quantum computing, coding, AI, and the future of technology👀 New videos coming soon!
