Technology Bigshot

The news about the birth of quantum computers spread overwhelmingly in the scientific community, the technology circle, and the world Internet. The bigwigs in the technology circle and the industry leaders also jumped out to make "spit" one after another, and these celebrities have "collectively dispatched" invariably It is also the core of the Internet that has caused quite a stir on the Internet, driven by the celebrity effect, that is, how can the public lose their shadow under this "grand occasion".

There are many people who are concerned about the birth of quantum computers, but more people are gathered under the banners of those world giants.

"Haha, there is reason and evidence, the facts are in front of us, and there seems to be no reason to believe it! The market value of 800 billion US dollars, my God~~!! Zuckerberg estimates that he will wake up from a dream now laughing!"

"No no! You are wrong, that person should be Jeff Bezos and Amazon. Look at Bezos' emotional and magical tweet, although the whole sentence is composed of the same word, but the connotation Super rich!!!"

"Agreed, but am I the only one who thinks that way? I think Jeff now regrets why he only invested in D-Wave for $30 million? Why not $300 million? No! Why not just buy D-Wave Wave~!!!"

"Hey, almost all the tech giants have joined this luxurious lunch. Why is Gates silent? This is not scientific!"

"When did Paige become so funny?"

...

Driven by the chain of various effects, the Internet news during this period was "sucked" by quantum computers, and it has become the focus of the whole people. These reactions can also explain the impact of this scientific and technological progress on the whole world. The impact of quantum computers. The birth of its influence on the entire human being is no less than the birth of the world's first electronic computer "Eniac".

However, in the context of today's era, the speed of news dissemination is far from the era in which "Eniak" lived in the last century. As a result, once this invention that affects all human civilization appears, it will cause a sensation in the whole world, almost a day. , more than two-thirds of internet users and more than 2.7 billion people got the news on the same day.

The fluidity of information in the era of Internet sharing is once again evident.

...

In a certain area in California, USA, a room with black and white colors is very simple and pleasing to the eye. An old man is sitting in front of the computer without saying a word. The room is slightly dark. At this moment, the local time It's late into the night.

The old man's face was covered with snow-white whiskers and white hair,

He is already over 70 years old. According to ten years ago, this age has been regarded as the end of life, but in today's era, 70 years old is only half the journey of life for human beings.

"It's time to sleep! Kevin!" A voice sounded in the quiet room.

"I'll go to rest soon! You should rest too." The old man in front of the computer said a vicissitudes of life.

The old man's name is Kevin Kelly. For this name, if a person considers himself a Silicon Valley person, if he does not know this name, he will be a Silicon Valley person.

Kevin. Kelly is the founding editor-in-chief of the famous American magazine "Wired", and he even has the title of "prophet". He has successfully predicted many Internet trends and megatrends in his book, Kevin Kelly made predictions about the trends and concepts for the next two or three decades at the end of the last century, and over time, until Today, his predictions have all come true, such as the rise of Internet public wisdom such as big data, cloud computing, 3D printing, blogging, screen reading, and wikis.

Kevin Kelly is also known as the "Father of Silicon Valley Spirit" and the "Godfather of the World Internet", well deserved.

However, when the "Godfather of Silicon Valley" at this moment looked at the computer screen, his face was solemn. In fact, he had not smiled much in recent years.

He is paying attention to the latest news in the world, and there is no doubt that the news he is browsing at the moment is about the quantum computer that has been "swiping" on the Internet recently. Just as the outside world was celebrating the entry of mankind into the quantum computer era, when Kevin Kelly heard the news, his face was not excited, not even joyful, but solemn.

He sat quietly in front of the computer, closed his eyes and thought, meditated for ten minutes, then slowly opened his eyes and took out a pair of glasses from the drawer. He could never need glasses again, but he did not choose to accept the "replication technology". Treat yourself to a pair of healthy eyes.

After putting on the glasses, the sound of the keyboard gradually sounded, and each word formed a sentence, a paragraph, until it finally became a complete article...

"The news I saw today kept me awake at night, so I was supposed to fall asleep and have a good dream, and I'm actually writing this article, maybe you can already guess what the news I said is about D-Wave and XlouS jointly built the first quantum computer in human history, which should have been a moment of celebration for all mankind, and it was.

But when I heard the news, I suddenly felt a suppressed emotion. When I tried to imagine the future, I was greeted with suffocating depression and fear.

In the past ten years until now, technology has progressed too fast, really too fast.

It is facing a crisis of out of control, and the development of technology is gradually facing a trend of out of control.

But on the contrary, I strongly encourage everyone to embrace the big wave of technology. I think that whether it is a national government, a business organization or an individual, they should embrace the technological trends of today's era, rather than resisting, resisting or even prohibiting the development of science and technology. There is no doubt that this is anti|human.

Under today's technological trend, subversive revolutions will occur in all walks of life, and they are all around us, right now. Specifically, you can refer to XlouS Company as an example. And these disruptors do not come from the industry itself, such as the following examples that happened around me at a recent time: the disruption of the translation industry a few years ago did not come from the translation industry itself, and the disruption of smart homes, wearable smart devices, and smartphones did not come from The industry itself, as well as the medical industry, the entertainment industry, etc., all of which we have personally experienced do not come from the industry itself, but new challengers that redefine the industry.

The most typical example of a challenger is XlouS. I think everyone is familiar with this company. He has redefined the translation industry, film industry, mobile phone industry, medical system and so on.

Some newly born technologies have become trends and trends. In the process, while we are embracing the tide of technology, people will also feel anxiety and panic, such as artificial intelligence and robots, and the advent of the era of screen reading has redefined reading. The going away of books and the trend of gradually disappearing, these things will make people feel panic, but we still have to embrace all these things in the end, because all these are big trends, big trends, and are unstoppable. Anyone who tries to swim against the current They will all be completely shattered by the impact of the big wave. "
