Imagine simulating a human brain. I'm not sure how massive a computer would need to be today to simulate the neurons, but an efficient implementation can be made to be the size of.. Well.. A brain.
I could see this causing massive changes in society. An artificial intelligent simulation of a super-smart human, that can be tuned toward a specific problem area and made much more focused and efficient than a purely biological brain could work...
- dvanduzer 11y agoIs there a specific reason a quantum computer would be better at simulating a human brain than a classical computer?
- drdeca 11y agoWell, to simulate the chemistry in the brain, would, I think, involve simulating some quantum mechanical things, which a quantum computer might be better equipped to simulate? Is the argument that I've heard. I don't know how that works when the qubits are being used to deal with other sorts of variables than bits though?
