How capable are modern quantum computers?


The image above this text is M.C Escher's "Ascending and descending" is basing the Penrose stairs. But that drawing is a very good illustration of the superposition. We can think that the walking men are portraying the atoms, what are put in molecular superposition. That means that when the other series of atoms is giving its energy to other series, the individual atoms would rise in the higher energy level, and the others will go to a lower energy level. In this model, the atoms would deliver energy to the other atom, which oscillates at the same frequency.

So that drawing could use to demonstrate the problems of the qubit. When the energy level of the other atoms is rising, they are losing energy at the same time to the structures. Sooner or later the energy of those atoms is ending. And the problem is that the attempt to increase the energy level of those "tired atoms" from outside makes them oscillate, and lose the information that is stored in them. This is the problem with quantum computers. Theoretically, they are ready to work. But the practical solutions are harder to make than researchers ever imagine. 

If we are thinking that a two-atomic molecule is turned to the qubit, the other atom must put in a higher energy level than the other. And then we should read the data that is stored in that molecule. So do you even imagine, what accuracy that thing requires? What is needed to separate data from individual atoms? 

The fact is that quantum computers are in the level of experimental use. That means that there are many things, that the creators of the system must win if they want to make those systems every-day use, or so good and trustable that they can be used in time or mission-critical systems. The problem is that the qubit must be in absolute stable condition, that it would not lose its data. And the superposition of the qubit is possible to make only in the molecular form of atoms. So that thing requires very high accuracy and making that thing in practice is difficult.

When robots are laughing and crying.

When robots are laughing and crying.  Does the AI have feelings?  Does the AI have feelings? Or can it be emphatic? The fact is this program code that controls the AI determines if it can give empathic reactions. The problem with the human nervous system is that we don't make a difference in the writing of empathic letters or telling empathic stories human or AI. Our nervous system is not adapted to AI yet. And that's why we cannot separate text written by AI from text that made by humans.  What does somebody make with AI that can emulate feelings? The fact is that the cyborgs are useful tools for infiltration operations. The human-size robots can have WLAN/6G connections with the central computers. Or they can form a neural network that shares information between all group members. The robots can also act as walking neural network-based supercomputers. That can make complicated solutions.  In those networks, each member shares information and their data-handling capacity all o

Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization

    Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization The Earth 2.0 or officially Kepler-452b is locating extreme log distance from Earth(1).    A new Earth-type planet has been found near the star, which is similar to our own Sun. The journey to that planet would take 1400 years, even if the spacecraft will reach the speed of the light. The planet has been found in the year 2008, but the confirmation of the existence of that planet has been taken time, but in 2015 the confirmation has been got, and Earth 2.0 has turned true.  The mass of that planet is 1,9 times Earth and the temperature is excellent if we are thinking about liquid water, but the journey to that planet will take so long, that we cannot ever go in there by using regular rockets and technology. The thing is that this kind of planets are the most interesting if we are looking for the lifeforms, which are similar to us, and the problem with that kind of things is that the communicatio

Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission

  Image I Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission 1) Tunguska UFO-theory  Tunguska meteorite is the mystery, that has been solved once, but then the case has been open again because Lake Cheko was not suitable for an impact crater. That lake has been introducing as an impact crater of the Tunguska meteorite. But the problem is that the shape of that lake is like a swimming pool. And that means it cannot form by a meteorite. So the mystery remains.  Meteorites can launch the natural nuclear fission if they hit the uranium ore, and transfer the impact energy to that ore. And is the thing that the famous "Tunguska" meteorite caused that kind of effect? There is also a theory that some "UFO" explode in that area, but the thing is that it is only theory, but interesting topics for some TV-series.  So I will begin this text by handling that theory, which is one of the incredible and outstanding theories in the world. Officially there is no physical evidence of
