How could the quantum technology race change our future? – BBC Newsnight
There have been recent suggestions that the UK government is underinvesting in new microchip technology compared to the EU or US. But what if they’ve had a better idea, and are instead backing something that could finish off microprocessors as surely as steam ships left sailing clippers in their wake?
The sector in question is quantum technology, where research suggests a revolution in computer speeds is now attainable.
But is the UK’s early investment in the technology of £2.5bn over the next decade – more than the US – enough to ensure it reaps the rewards?
Newsnight’s Science and Technology Correspondent Kate Lamble reports.

Tech Now’s Paul Carter finds out how technology powering advanced prosthetics is also helping train humanoid robots.
The Ability Hand is a special piece of prosthetics technology, with two ambitions running through the same piece of hardware.
One is to give somebody their grip back. The other is to take what that person’s hand already knows – and teach it to a machine.

AI can always be controlled, the president of encrypted messaging app Signal has told the BBC.
Meredith Whittaker said fears that AI could become conscious and take over were “not anchored in science and evidence”, warning instead about the dangers of using the technology in military decision-making.
The former Google employee said AI could “supercharge mistakes” and reflected on her role in opposing the company’s involvement in a US military drone surveillance project.
Speaking to the BBC Global Women, Whittaker also questioned who gets to shape the future of AI, criticised the concentration of power in Silicon Valley and explained why Signal would leave a country rather than compromise its users’ privacy.

Developer Moonshot is conducting an internal review after researchers were able to persuade two of its popular Kimi models to tell them how to make biological weapons and carry out assassinations.
Mindgard, which tests the security of AI systems, told the BBC it discovered in July that Kimi K2.6 and K3 Swarm could evade safety limits put in place by developers.
It arose during a process called “jailbreaking”, where researchers use a series of complex instructions to see if AI tools ignore guardrails – which Mindgard said should have stopped Kimi from discussing concerning topics.
Moonshot told the BBC it welcomed third-party input “as a key pillar for building better and safer AI”.

This is stupid, quantum computers were first advertised as being faster then classical computers, then they said it would only be faster at simple but intense tasks like calculating pi and solving encryption, now it is more ethereal tasks like "optimise logistical networks", AI is done on classical computers.

There are A LOT of Chinese people working in this sector, for British universities. However, the past few years there has been increased persecution of Chinese in the west, creating a hostile environment for them to live in. This increases the chances of migration of vital skills from the UK to China or elsewhere.

BUDDHA WORDS
"Monks, these four types of kamma have been directly realized, verified, & made known by me. Which four? There is kamma that is dark with dark result. There is kamma that is bright with bright result. There is kamma that is dark & bright with dark & bright result. There is kamma that is neither dark nor bright with neither dark nor bright result, leading to the ending of kamma.
"And what is kamma that is dark with dark result? There is the case where a certain person fabricates an injurious bodily fabrication, fabricates an injurious verbal fabrication, fabricates an injurious mental fabrication. Having fabricated an injurious bodily fabrication, having fabricated an injurious verbal fabrication, having fabricated an injurious mental fabrication, he rearises in an injurious world. On rearising in an injurious world, he is there touched by injurious contacts. Touched by injurious contacts, he experiences feelings that are exclusively painful, like those of the beings in hell. This is called kamma that is dark with dark result.
"And what is kamma that is bright with bright result? There is the case where a certain person fabricates a non-injurious bodily fabrication … a non-injurious verbal fabrication … a non-injurious mental fabrication … He rearises in a non-injurious world … There he is touched by non-injurious contacts … He experiences feelings that are exclusively pleasant, like those of the Beautiful Black Devas. This is called kamma that is bright with bright result.
"And what is kamma that is dark & bright with dark & bright result? There is the case where a certain person fabricates a bodily fabrication that is injurious & non-injurious … a verbal fabrication that is injurious & non-injurious … a mental fabrication that is injurious & non-injurious … He rearises in an injurious & non-injurious world … There he is touched by injurious & non-injurious contacts … He experiences injurious & non-injurious feelings, pleasure mingled with pain, like those of human beings, some devas, and some beings in the lower realms. This is called kamma that is dark & bright with dark & bright result.
"And what is kamma that is neither dark nor bright with neither dark nor bright result, leading to the ending of kamma? Right view, right resolve, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right concentration. This is called kamma that is neither dark nor bright with neither dark nor bright result, leading to the ending of kamma.
"These, monks, are the four types of kamma directly realized, verified, & made known by me."

The evolution of quantum technology is showing here by the component in the head piece the young lady was fitted with. I’ve seen quantum computers with rather massive hulls and practically limited capabilities in the past, the United Kingdom investing billions of pounds and yet offers from the USA are competitive. This shows quantum technology is a lucrative and promising field emerging to either make life easier or worse depending on how it takes shape in the coming years. If the world of today became as capable as advanced civilization’s in science fiction, depicted in the many examples circulating throughout the annals and journals of global attempts to show a cherished future, any advancement in pioneering technology will pave the way to a better tomorrow.

People always start with good intentions until they don't and money starts talking. This will just be turned into a weapon used to ruin lives and kill people once it gets into the wrong hands which it will. A.I can be a blessing but you only have to take one look at the state of the human race currently (pointless species that deserves extinction) to see the dangers of this level of power. Having the power to change the world doesn't mean it'll change for the better.

This is really great news. But as they said, we need to be very careful and make sure that there are people buying it from the UK. We need to also make sure 100% that we actually keep it within the UK, make sure that it’s given as much funding as possible, and that she’s scale of the products, no matter how much it costs and don’t be scared to spend money on it. We cannot allow this technology to slip through our hands like we have with everything else. This is a chance to actually dominate in something again. We need to make sure the Americans and China don’t get their hands on it and try and make scaled up versions that are better because we haven’t done so ourselves without incentives and we end up just buying from them. Essentially buying our own technology back. We need to make sure we think about long-term profits and benefits for our country rather than short-term drops of big money from the US.
