  1. Re: Predictions on Intel Unveils 'Breakthrough' 49 Qubit Quantum Computer (extremetech.com) · · Score: 1

    Remember the first home computers? They only had like 4k of memory and ran 1Mhz processors. Therefore quantum computers will be everywhere evenutally.

    Correct. Things like Neural Nets, which have been around since the 70s, which work just like how the brain works. That is why they call them "neural networks" and that is why we have things like Siri now, which are just like humans. And now we have "deep learning" which takes it even deeper.

    You are right. It is normal for a CEO to SELL ALL OF HIS STOCK and options to the minimum level allowed right before a major business event. Perfectly normal. My, my, don't YOU look stupid?

    No, I am talking about the ARM Cortex-A75 which isn't released yet and Intel had a hand in designing and is susceptible to Meltdown. My, my, don't YOU look stupid?

    Plus my phone has more processing power than those DEC computers. And since we know that past performance always predicts future performance, we will all have quantum iPhones soon. Progress is inevitable. Just look at Moore's Law.

    Yes. Because computers advanced tremendously in the early days, this will too. It is inevitable. You just have to wait.

    What is even more sad is that the Intel CEO dumped all of his stock after learning about the flawed processors, and it looks like he is getting away with it.

    The tipping point for quantum computers is around 30 qubits. This opens up research on breaking traditional encryption, AI, autonomous driving and blockchain. Very exciting.

  20. Neural Nets are not AI. Just because they call them "neural" doesn't make it like neurons. Those are marketing terms to fool people. Just like "deep learning". No such thing. Computers don't learn: they just run programs.

    "users need to sign up for Cisco's StealthWatch service and let traffic from their kit "

    "Sign up for" means "pay monthly for". It sounds like they are analyzing forwarded flow data and looking for flows to/from a particular port/IPs. It would catch malware that uses C&C to known rogue IPs, etc.
