In this week’s episode Steve Suarez from Horizon X Quantum and one on the speakers at the Futurists Summit discusses the reality of the famed Q-Day or Quantum Day - a date sometime in the near future when Quantum computers can break our existing RSA encryption technologies exposing banks, government and military to significant cyber security risk. How real is it and how can we prepare our institutions for this change? Suarez and Brett get into it
In this week’s episode of The Futurists, David Orban joins Brett King in the hosting chair and we get to talk Quantum with Roberto Siagri, a theoretical physcist working on putting quantum processors in orbit. We talk about the advances in photonic quantum multi-dimensional cubits (yes you heard that right), the likelihood of Q-Day (Quantum Day), and of course, what secrets of the universe quantum just might unlock. We discuss Roberto’s new startup Rotonium, working on exactly these questions. What happens when a physicist becomes a futurist engineer? Let’s find out.
