Quantum Computing for Computer Scientists
An 88-minute Microsoft Research talk that explains how quantum computers beat classical ones using basic linear algebra, qubits, superposition and gates. It works through the Deutsch oracle problem and ends with entanglement, teleportation and a live demo.
Ideas to listen for
- 1qubits
- 2linear algebra
- 3deutsch oracle
Discussion context
