I am fascinated to see how this tech becomes miniturized and commercialized, 100% will be what causes the singularity, not from creating artificial people, but by becoming an implant enhancement that will almost definitely radically change how people that get it think and interact with the world around them in ways that are physically impossible for us to predict.
It will be a long time and a lot of innovations in material science until you can implant a quantum computer into a person. So much that I am not sure it is even possible (or practical)
Also you could just get an implant with conventional chips which communicates back to a quantum computer if you really needed that.
Assuming they make those in however many decades it takes. I guess technically they have half-finished ones in the lab right now.
Quantum computing is widely misunderstood by the general public, and really won't be as game changing as people think. I doubt any consumers will ever have a need for one that would justify their price.
This is an interesting take... I like it
How do you get from a couple dozen qubits to brain enhancing cybernetics? Quantum computing is fairly well understood at this point, it just doesn't scale well yet
