FEATURED LEARNING RESOURCE: Unique Collection Spanning 75 Years
18 Scientific American Articles on QC
Reader Friendly, Well Illustrated,
Written By Top ResearchersFEATURED LEARNING RESOURCE:
(1) Demystifying Mists
A Graphical Way to Learn Quantum Computing
(2) The Insidious Credentials Theorem Is Invalid
The perception that a STEM background is required to meaningfully
participate in Quantum Computing is both false and damaging.
*This site is also very useful if you’re a QC professional. How could that be true, since a QC pro will find the site’s content boringly elementary. Yes, of course, but what about all those in your social circle who ask: What do you do?
Now you have a perfect answer – send them here. We’ll take it from there.
** Besides the engineering challenges, there’s yet another obstruction – too few people understand the technology. According to this NY Times article –
Next Tech Talent Shortage: Quantum Computing
the labor pool in quantum computing is a fraction of what’s projected in next five years.
If you’re curious about Quantum Computing,
then you’re at the right place.*
Even more, at the right time. This fascinating field is emerging
from the lab and steadily progressing toward commercial viability.
As recent evidence of that claim, consider the recent listing of IonQ on NYSE as the first pure play QC company to trade publicly.**
Getting you up to speed on QC with a variety of online learning opportunities, customized to your background, is our goal.
Getting Started
An effective way to optimize online learning, is for you to answer a one-page one-minute questionnaire, thereby allowing us to suggest learning resources aligned with your STEM experience.
No matter if you’re a newbie or an accredited engineer, we have much content customizable to your learning goals.
FOUR REASONS WHY BEING QUANTUM CURIOUS MAKES SENSE
Here are four explicit motivations why now is a great time to spark up your quantum curiosity:
(1) If a reliable and economically sensible quantum computer can be built, it will solve a wide range of important problems beyond the reach of today’s best supercomputers.
It’s not exaggerating to claim access to these devices will radically transform society, preparing Homo Sapiens like no other technology since fire, to step boldly into the solar system and beyond.
(2) Hence why there’s a wide spectrum of activity – from startups to large enterprises, along with globally recognized research institutions, and growing list of sovereign nations – all collaborating to move Quantum Computing forward. Such multi-category activity means there’s a growing demand for non-STEM expertise.
(3) Engaging with these highly informative sessions on Quantum Computing is your excellent opportunity to jump into the loop on this innately exciting approach to computing.
The insights you’ll learn by engaging in these quality curated sessions will put you at a notable advantage when this genuinely transformative technology is ready for Main Street.
(4) Wrap your mind around a captivating alluring model of how the world really works. Simultaneously intriguing and rewarding, you’ll see the world in a radically new way as you learn the rules of the game when the playing board is measured in Plank Units.
