"Comprehensive artificial intelligence could potentially mark the end of humanity. Machines may begin to operate on their own, continuously redesigning themselves at an ever-increasing pace. Given the slow process of biological evolution, humans might not be able to keep up, and we could eventually be replaced," warned Stephen Hawking.
**Technology is exploding**
IBM recently announced a groundbreaking development: "We have successfully created a quantum computer prototype, and the commercialization of quantum computing is accelerating!" This concept, once considered science fiction, was first introduced by renowned author Liu Cixin in his novel *The Three-Body Problem*. Now, revolutionary technologies like quantum computers, which once seemed out of reach, are becoming a reality.
**IBM Develops 50-Bit Quantum Computer Prototype**
IBM’s recent breakthrough represents a major leap forward in the field of quantum computing. The company has achieved what was once thought impossible—creating a 50-qubit quantum computer. This machine can perform two to the power of 50 operations simultaneously, equivalent to over 10^15 calculations. A quantum computer the size of a desktop could soon match the computing power of today’s most advanced supercomputers, such as China’s Tianhe-1A.
**China is Also Conducting Research on Quantum Computers**
A quantum computer is essentially a device that can instantly function like tens of millions of calculators, performing complex arithmetic at lightning speed. Compared to traditional computers, they are like comparing modern technology to the ancient abacus.
In 2016, IBM launched its first 5-qubit quantum computer, and just over a year later, it made a significant breakthrough. It announced the creation of a 20-qubit quantum computer, followed by the development of a 50-qubit quantum computer prototype. This milestone marks a new era in the world of quantum computing.
**AI is Feared by Many Like Tigers**
It's easy to imagine that in the near future, quantum computers will become a central pillar in scientific and technological advancement. Alongside this progress, artificial intelligence—once just a buzzword—has now taken center stage. Many people fear AI as if it were a tiger. In fact, the article previously discussed how the growth of computing power will greatly enhance AI capabilities. When will the future arrive? Only time will tell.
