I sometimes find myself thinking back to a video where a man claimed to have traveled to the future. He described weightless, mobile cities, entirely governed by a quasi-divine AI capable of assessing a person’s criminal profile in just a few questions.
A portion of humanity lived in these cities, under obscure rules, likely adapted to the AI’s demands. The rest, however, survived in a much harsher world, left to fend for itself in nature. There seemed to be no more nations or traditional political structures.
This thought often haunts me: humanity has endured countless catastrophes—collapsing empires, endless wars. Even today, a small minority preserves technological advances and lives in luxury, while the majority endures dreadful conditions. And it will likely remain that way in the future.
Recently, an announcement on YouTube revealed that a research team affiliated with the University of Oxford had successfully created quantum entanglement between multiple quantum computers connected via fiber optics. Although these machines still handle only a few qubits, this breakthrough allowed them to function as a single microprocessor.
There are also quantum communication networks linked by satellites. Yet, today’s AI still relies on traditional computing technology, using bits (0 and 1) processed by logic gates.
So, if AI can already achieve such spectacular results with these “traditional” means, what will it become when it fully harnesses quantum computing?
In theory, if political choices allowed it, a planetary quantum intelligence connecting thousands of quantum computers could one day be created.
