When Quantum Computing Brings Breakthroughs ... or Chaos
Listen now
Description
Quantum computers harness the almost mystical properties of subatomic particles to solve problems that are beyond even the most powerful “classical” computers available today. Will these computers usher in a new generation of custom pharmaceuticals and sustainable materials—or will they be used to crack every password and create global chaos? BCG’s Antoine Gourévitch imagines the coming age of quantum computers and dives deep into ways they could supercharge the discovery of new materials. But the quantum age comes with huge risks as well; governments around the world are already racing to develop quantum-safe passwords that will keep our data secure.    Learn More:  Antoine Gourévitch: https://on.bcg.com/4hMrXaQ BCG on Quantum Computing: https://on.bcg.com/3AGK415 GenAI on GenAI: https://link.chtbl.com/bcg-genai-on-genai?sid=IT  CEO Digest: https://link.chtbl.com/ceo-digest-bcg-show?sid=IT  CEO Moments of Truth: https://on.bcg.com/ITMoT  This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy
