I’ve read and read your explanation of QC, and still i can’t imagine what QC is.
I have no history in engineering/math/science, but I am an avid fan and bystander of science and technology.

So I have some really really stupid questions for you.

1. What would a QC look like? what kind of user interface would it have?
2. What would we use a QC for in day to day life? Or is it rather an instrument for scientific research?

I have warned you about the ignorance of my questions
But I would be very grateful for any thoughts or answers.

Thank you in Advance,
Kind regards,
MvH

I finished my post graduate in Computer Science.
I want to do Phd in Quantum Computing.
Can i do?
Please give your advise.
What type of knowledge i need for QC.

The most intuitive QFT and quantum-computing model is Macroscopic Phonons. Suddenly one sees quantum computing processes all around us.

For example, consider a child’s kite as a basic quantum-computer suited to solve its flight control problem. Consistent with QFT and quantum computing theory, one finds phononic qubit “cells” in the kite stick and membrane field: one pair encodes yaw, another pitch, and so on. The wind itself is a quantum phonon qubit (or packet of qubits). The kitestring is a quibit cell. As these qubits interact as a computer, the kite flies. Its a “quantum robot”

On the other hand, a kite cab be designed with no embodied quantum-computed “inherent stabilities”, but instead depend on a complex digital sensor/microcontroller/actuator “classical” control system, which adds prohibitive cost and mass.

The utter elegance of the embodied phonon-based quantum computation is quite apparent.

Please copy me by email if you have a specific reply to this conjecture.

Personally, I think this is likely to be true, but perhaps not quite as likely as many quantum computer scientists. Indeed, in some sense I even hope it’s true: it’d be a remarkable breakthrough in our understanding of quantum mechanics!

To put this differently.

What would happen to this field if we found out that abstract classical computers could simulate abstract quantum computers of equivalent phase space dimension?

If that were so, then quantum computers would be a special case of classical computers.

Hmmm… Let is hope nobody ever proves any mathematical result like that!

Just letting you know the link in the credit of the image of the atoms is broken, or the resource has been moved.
