General-purpose Quantum Computer
Time flies.
In five years, the humans who came to the Wolf 1061 Star System completed the construction of all resource gathering bases. Today, Wolf c-1 is filled with factories, bright lights, countless robots running around, and countless machines carrying out various operations in full swing.
Humans have used technology to bring this planet, which had been quiet for billions of years, to life.
The main structure of the mobile Space Dock in satellite orbit has been completed, and the Orbital Mass Accelerator on the ground continues to project large amounts of resources and materials into space day and night.
The endless stream of transport ships, like busy bees, filled the entire space orbit in a busy yet orderly manner.
The resource transfer platform, which has been completed for some time, continuously transports supplies from the Wolf c-1 satellite to the Wolf 1601 C orbit and into the cylindrical Space Station built there in the style of the Hope space station.
The frequent transport ships carrying supplies shuttle back and forth between various stations, and from a distance, they look like a bridge spanning the Galaxy.
Five years is the first milestone, and also the time when human productivity will take off again.
Because at this juncture, humanity has perfectly solved the problem of Quantum Computer being susceptible to noise and errors during computation, solved the problem of quantum error correction, and then successfully realized General-purpose Quantum Computer.
General-purpose Quantum Computer, as the name suggests, is a computer that can do everything like a traditional computer, rather than the kind of computer that could only do specific tasks when Quantum Computer were first researched.
The realization of General-purpose Quantum Computer is not a miracle, but an inevitable result of human technological accumulation. After all, humans had already successfully mastered many quantum application technologies in the 21st century, the most typical of which is Quantum Secure Communication.
It is worth mentioning that this General-purpose Quantum Computer is not a half-finished product or an early experimental product, but a mature version.
Since humans already possess AI like the 'Tianhe Light' supercomputer on traditional computers, and further modified it with superconductivity to become Superconducting Computer, humanity doesn't actually lack computing power in the short term. Under these circumstances, the team researching General-purpose Quantum Computer isn't in a hurry to release a semi-finished product, but rather waits until the product is fully mature.
The realization of General-purpose Quantum Computer signifies a major step forward for humanity in the Computer Field. Based on Quantum Computer, humanity's Central Computer will be upgraded once again, and new Artificial Intelligence will become smarter, more flexible, and more intelligent.
It is foreseeable that in the future, humans will produce new robots and assign new Artificial Intelligence to the programs of each robot, so that they can contribute to human development.
Many jobs that previously required human intervention will be replaced by new robots.
This means that humanity will be able to free up a significant amount of manpower to focus on tasks that require human expertise, such as scientific research. At the same time, the addition of more intelligent robots will further accelerate human construction and manufacturing, thus alleviating the population shortage problem.
Just like how New Warship originally took ten years to build can be completed in just five or even three years after the new Artificial Intelligence is put into use, the construction period for Residential Spaceship will also be greatly shortened.
It can be said that the emergence of General-purpose Quantum Computer is like pressing the accelerator button for human development and construction, instantly amplifying human industrial power by more than a hundredfold.
The already large fleet of robots will expand further. It is foreseeable that in the next few years, robots will be ubiquitous on every corner of the planet Wolf c-1.
Fueled by the concept of destructive mining, these various types of robots will swarm across the planet like locusts, bringing humanity even larger and more abundant resources.
General-purpose Quantum Computer not only accelerate industrial development, but also catalyze technological advancements in various fields.
To take a recent example, there's the Miniaturized Fusion Reactor that humanity is currently researching.
Before the advent of General-purpose Quantum Computer, verifying various models using conventional computers could take months or even years, potentially involving calculations to identify flaws or assess the feasibility of a model algorithm. However, with General-purpose Quantum Computer, such verification calculations can yield results in just a few seconds, or even less than a second.
It is evident that the research into Miniaturized Fusion Reactor will accelerate under the catalysis of General-purpose Quantum Computer.
The same applies to other related technologies.
So why are Quantum Computer so much faster than traditional Electronic Computer? The reason lies in their underlying principles.
For the same number of bits n, the information capacity that Qubit can represent is 2 to the power of n times that of an electronic bit. In terms of operating speed, quantum computing can greatly improve its operation speed due to the characteristics of Quantum Entanglement.
To give a simple example, if we want to add one to ten numbers, a traditional computer would need to perform the addition operation one by one for each number. However, Quantum Computer does the opposite. It only needs to add one number, and the remaining nine numbers will be automatically updated due to Quantum Entanglement.
Quantum Entanglement is completed instantaneously, so Quantum Computer are naturally faster than traditional Electronic Computer.
The reason why Quantum Computer -based Artificial Intelligence is smarter than traditional Artificial Intelligence is actually known to many people.
That's because Quantum Computer algorithms are closer to 'intelligence'.
In other words, the human brain operates on a quantum plane, or human thought arises from mechanisms at the quantum level. As the saying goes, only magic can defeat magic; if humanity wants to create more intelligent Artificial Intelligence by simulating its own brain's thinking, then only Quantum Computer can do so.
Currently, the only way for humanity to see Strong Artificial Intelligence is through General-purpose Quantum Computer.
Subsequently, the New Spacesuit were also equipped with a new AI system.
The emergence of General-purpose Quantum Computer can be seen as a stroke of genius, as the New Government anticipates that previous human construction plans may be completed ahead of schedule.
Of course, this doesn't mean that once we have General-purpose Quantum Computer, humanity will abandon research on traditional computers; it just means that they will not be a primary focus of development for the time being.
Yes, from a human perspective, traditional Electronic Computer have not reached their end, and humanity does not want to abandon any Credits.
Every science has many branches. For example, the current Central Computer of mankind, "Tianhe Light", belongs to the traditional architecture of superconducting Electronic Computer. In the field of Electronic Computer, we can explore further, such as the Electron Spin Attribute Computer mentioned earlier, or even an Electronic Computer that only exists in the wild imagination of some scientist and utilizes the incompatibility of electrons and their spin properties.
The same applies to General-purpose Quantum Computer. Currently, humans use photons as Qubit. In addition, there are other branches of Quantum Computer that can be pursued, such as Topological Quantum Computer and ionized well Quantum Computer controlled by electromagnetic fields.
Choosing which particle to use as Qubit makes it possible to develop different Quantum Computer.
Elementary Particle all possess quantum properties.
It's easy to imagine just how complex the specialization of Credits is.
