AI Technology

I'm not completely sure what it involves but I sure as heII hope it has something to do with quantum computing, the next wave. I have read that quantum computers rely on a property called quantum entanglement. From what I understand the qubits in each computer are entangled particles that cannot be replicated or hacked by another computer unless it's the size of an aircraft carrier and even then can only make an educated guess. About as secure as you can get. If BB is developing quantum computer systems as their AI TECH and are successful then I believe price could be astronomic. Not a physicist so please don't take my word for what is essentially a layman trying to figure it out. I wouldn't mind if someone could offer a better understanding....thanks

Pursuant to my previous post.....Bothered me why I didn't know if BB was in the quantum computing business. Hopefully this is the indication they are and also since I couldn't find what the Q stood for in QNX anywhere I'm going to assume it means Quantum. Makes me feel very good about BB. Quantum computing is here by looks of things and appears BB may have discovered how to use it ...more

Sure looks like they do work for the military. https://youtu.be/_hQQlCWMrQA

That is all wonderful for how many years down the road? For those of us who are retired and don't have the luxury of time, doesn't mean much and that's why we were hoping WSB could have pulled another GME with this stock. If this technology can be monetized now it would be great. We just hope it won't be that long to see this stock appreciate in value oh say another $10.

Thank you ScottCanada. IMO this is huge. Things are moving a lot faster than what that article suggested. I feel like military gets everything before the rest of us and at the rate R&D is moving on quantum computers that it won't be 10-15. We're on the verge of some spectacular computer tech. I'm retired also. I'm also hoping to be around when BB hits paydirt. If not my wife ...more

Great stuff LV. It's mind blowing, so new and we have it. Kind of like the Holy Grail of cyber security. Quantum computers are going to change the world as we know it.

A Beginners guide to quantum computing . Only 10 mins long but worth the time to look. Cyber security is mentioned. For some us it's nothing like we've ever seen before, truly amazing. BB must have practically mastered it to be in the business. Hope this works, never done this before.If not, go to Youtube, use my first sentence and add Shohini Ghose [url=https://https://m.youtube.com ...more
