Why is quantum computing different, entanglement and interference. How do quantum computers look, cryogenic refrigerators, close to absolute zero. IBM's history in quantum computing. What is the quantum experience, how a program goes from the cloud app to the supercooled quantum computer; free and open access to 5 and 16 qbit computers; how to write a program (called a circuit); examples of circuits; is 16 qbits enough for real problems. When can we break encryption with quantum computing, why error correction is so important. Popularity of quantum experience, how soon will a submitted circuit run; using python to submit circuits; what is the "Hello World" of quantum computing; how to write a python program for the quantum experience. Community involvement. Future of quantum, becoming a technology, what about the temperature requirements. Chaotic and exciting times coming.
