ou can't put a ‘1’ ina memory location and be sure when you come to read it you will get a ‘1’ back. You have to factor in the possibility of error. Quantum effects can be annoying - requiring us to devise all manner of error checking hardware — but they can also be helpful. Richard Feynman proposed using
means the Turing test is not passable by a machine. Humans can create; machines cannot. That is the difference. Will Computers Take over the World? Ray Kurzweil, the American inventor and futurologist, has suggested computers are getting exponentially faster and will soon reach such immense power they became
itatively different to a traditional computer in order to break the Turing limit. The obvious place to turn is the quantum world.
