Reply to comment by matpompili in Experimental demonstration of entanglement delivery using a quantum network stack by matpompili

Have you given any thought to the ramifications of what this technology could do if it was hijacked by a rogue AI system? I'm not sure if I articulated that question correctly but I'm sure everybody here gets the gist... let's just all bear in mind that many things that were once considered science fiction have become science fact. Please approach this question with an open mind.

Alright, lemme try: IF the AI has access to multiple full-fledged quantum computers, IF those computers are connected by a quantum network many many many times better than what we have done here (which is state of the art right now), IF we don't realize the only prototype we have of this thing is being used without our authorization and we don't pull a plug, THEN a rouge AI could MAYBE run some algorithms faster than it could on other computers it has stolen.

But if such an AI was available, I would ask it to please please keep my devices on resonance so I can do more useful stuff in the meantime.

Lmao, thank you for slightly easing my paranoia induced, conspiracy theorist fueled, fears
