Cracking the Code: What Bitcoin and Quantum Cryptography have to do with Kabbalah and AI (Words, Words, Words 23)

from Young Heretics · host Spencer A. Klavan

Ifmmp! After months spent explaining how communicating works in different languages, I've gotten a question about now not communicating works, in any language. Turns out the answer will take us through ancient mysticism, the invention of computers, and the technology behind Bitcoin...all in 30 minutes! At the end of it all, a tl;dr on what we should think about the race to build bigger faster quantum systems to make and break codes in our age of AI and machine-generated poetry.
