While still in a research phase, stem cells may one day herald a quantum leap in the field of cardiology.
In the 1970s, Stephen Hawking told us that a black hole, even though you think it's black, it actually emits radiation when you take into account quantum mechanics.
The curvature of space-time around the black hole brings to life the quantum mechanical fluctuation, and the black hole radiates.
The energy of empty space brings to life quantum fluctuations.
He would try to figure out what the quantum wave function of this huge number of atoms looked like.
And so I consider myself one of these people, along with most of the other experimental quantum physicists, who need a good deal of logic to string together these complex ideas.
And so they wrote down all these observations, and they called it the theory of quantum mechanics.
And so that's where physics was at a few years ago; you needed quantum mechanics to describe little, tiny particles.
Because if everything is made up of little particles and all the little particles follow quantum mechanics, then shouldn't everything just follow quantum mechanics?
And so I'd feel a lot better about the whole thing if we could somehow show that an everyday object also follows quantum mechanics.
This is the first object that you can see that has been in a mechanical quantum superposition.
This device has the ability to be in a quantum superposition, but it needs a little help to do it.
So quantum mechanics says that inanimate objects feel the same way.
And so we knew, if we wanted to see this piece of metal behave quantum mechanically, we're going to have to kick out all the other passengers.
And so I had to develop this new intuition, that it seems like all the objects in the elevator are really just quantum objects just crammed into a tiny space.
You hear a lot of talk about how quantum mechanics says that everything is all interconnected.
It's that those connections, your connections to all the things around you, literally define who you are, and that's the profound weirdness of quantum mechanics.
I felt empty and full, hot and cold, euphoric and depressed because the brain is the world's first fully functional quantum computer; it can occupy multiple states at the same time.
It involves light cones and quantum entanglement, and I don't really understand any of that.
And that came as a surprise to me, because I was actually hired to work on quantum computation.
But instead of being focused on general knowledge, it was going to be focused on specialist knowledge in quantum computing.
Like Wikipedia, the intention was that it would be written by the users, in this case, by experts in quantum computing.
Adding to the concern is a new type of computing technology, called quantum computing, which leverages microscopic properties of nature to deliver unimaginable increases in computational power.
About 15 years ago, when I learned of our new-found ability to create quantum effects that don't exist in nature, I was excited.
We are now preparing to fight quantum with quantum.
And when quantum computers arrive in the next 10 to 15 years, they will even more rapidly crack the complex mathematics that underlies many of our encryption systems today.
Indeed, the quantum computer is likely to turn our present security castle into a mere house of cards.
There's been a growing body of research in recent years looking at using quantum effects to make encryption stronger.
But the quantum world is truly random.
At my company, our quantum random number generator started life on a two meter by one meter optic table.
