Strength in numbers: First-ever quantum device that detects and corrects its own errors

i can see this being the beginning of the oncoming robot apocalypse .....

yea got me thinking bout that movie resident evil

I wonder if in our lifetime we'll ever see computers that can rival the complexity of the brain? The law dictating that technology doubles in processing power every 18 months makes me think not yet, but who knows? Leaps could be made

Unlike classical computing, in which the computer bits exist on one of two binary ("yes/no," or "true/false") positions, qubits can exist at any and all positions simultaneously, in various dimensions. It is this property, called "superpositioning," that gives quantum computers their phenomenal computational power, but it is also this characteristic which makes qubits prone to "flipping," especially when in unstable environments, and thus difficult to work with.

Just a few more tweaks here and there

But what about the flipping? I wonder if that's exploitable
