Into the Rabbit Hole with Andreas Bock Michelsen

S01 E08: We are very good at figuring things out from just looking at shadows 🫶🏼

Andreas Bock Michelsen distinguishes quantum computing as a specialised resource for unlocking complex material sciences, contrasting it with AI, which he characterises as powerful but non-sentient statistical guessing. He argues that while classical computers allow us to study the “shadows” of reality, quantum mechanics offers a way to see the full picture, albeit without replacing traditional machines. Furthermore, he champions a collective approach to scientific progress and what quantum computing could look like on a national level.

“Pretty pedagogical, and more focused on hands on programming than describing the hydrogen atom. Enjoy!”
