What‘s an analog computer?

from This is a Science Show · host Dustin Driver

Digital is the past—the future is analog. Crackling, hissing, buzzing, messy, full-spectrum analog. The arcane electronic contraptions put people on the moon and they could be the key to true AI, perfect biological simulations, and even room-temperature quantum computing. Featuring a 1960s Smith-Corona electric typewriter and Ahmad Jamal.
