About this video
Quantum computers aren’t just super-powerful laptops. They’re fundamentally different machines.
Think maze-solving: Classical computers send one explorer who checks every path methodically. Quantum computers split into multiple explorers checking all paths simultaneously.
The real story? Quantum computers excel at specific tasks (encryption, molecular behavior, optimization) while classical computers handle sequential logic better.
Your laptop isn’t going anywhere. But quantum computers will solve problems we never thought possible.
