Nearly 15 years ago, when I was studying chemical engineering, I was intrigued by the concept and evolution of quantum computing, which was discussed in the quantum mechanics course. It was fascinating to combine the notion of quantum mechanics and machines to operate at speeds billions or even trillions of times faster than our most advanced supercomputers today. To put it in perspective, the efficiency of these quantum computers compared to our current standards is like comparing a Formula 1 car’s speed to that of an ant. Recently, there has been a lot of buzz around Generative AI and its impressive machine-learning capabilities. Imagine coupling that with the power of supercomputers. The potential opportunities are endless, but so can its ability to wreak havoc.
