Description: John Preskill, Richard P. Feynman Professor of Theoretical Physics and the Allen V. C. and Lenabelle Davis Leadership Chair for the Institute for Quantum Information and Matter, talks with science writer and press officer Whitney Clavin about the intense interest surrounding quantum computers and accelerated efforts to build them. They explore the limits of current classical computers, the unpredictability of future quantum computing applications, and the history of quantum computing that leads back to Richard Feynman at Caltech. This event is part of Conversations on the Quantum World, a webinar series hosted by the Caltech Science Exchange.
