The Weird World of Quantum Computers
41:29 - 51:10 (09:40)
Quantum computers, quantum cryptography, quantum teleportation, and quantum sensors all rely on the strange ideas of quantum mechanics, which allow two particles to be entangled, affecting each other's fate. Quantum computers offer a better and more profound way to create quantum simulations and help us understand the behavior of the world at the atomic scale.
