Kakeya's conjecture was finally solved. And that opens new paths to engineering and quantum technology.




"Needle shown rotating inside a deltoid. At every stage of its rotation (except when an endpoint is at a cusp of the deltoid), the needle is in contact with the deltoid at three points: two endpoints (blue) and one tangent point (black). The needle's midpoint (red) describes a circle with diameter equal to half the length of the needle." (Wikipedia, Kakeya Set)


Researchers finally solved how big a space or area a pencil needs to turn on the table when somebody turns it in a certain direction. An interesting thing is that the Kakeya conjecture opens also a path to create a ball there the same pencil can turn in any direction. The thing is that the 3D ball can turn into a specific number of 2D layers. 


(Wikipedia, Kakeya Set)


Solving Kakeya's conjecture opens new paths to quantum engineering and space optimization. That conjecture can make it possible to improve the use of spaces. 

Researchers finally solved Kakeya's conjecture. And that can make it possible to create new types of qubits. Kakeya's conjecture is the way to calculate how to fit the specified length into as small an area as possible and turn it into as many directions as possible. The thing that makes Kakeya's conjecture interesting is that the ball can be shared into an unlimited number of layers. 

The ability to know how small that ball can be, that the stick can turn inside it makes it possible to make better models of qubits. In that model, the stick or line in the ball is the tool that can transport information into qubits. Kakeya's conjecture can also make it easier to create simulations for the new and powerful qubits. 

The new and powerful tools are required for the R&D work in the computer technology. Kakeya's conjecture makes it possible to create optimized spaces. Kakeyea's conjecture makes the possible to calculate the space that the metal tube takes. This thing helps to create spaces in warehouses where the stick can turn freely. That can improve calculation of the things like curves in corridors and other things. And that makes Kakeya's conjecture a multipurpose and effective tool. That tool can improve the use of CAD programs. It can automatize things like the height and width of the corridors and corners.

The new Chinese quantum machine is not 1000 times faster than Google's. It's a million times faster.

"A new quantum computing breakthrough has sent shockwaves through the tech world. Researchers at USTC unveiled Zuchongzhi-3, a 105-qubit machine that processes calculations at speeds that dwarf even the most powerful supercomputers." (ScitechDaily, China’s New Quantum Machine Runs One Million Times Faster Than Google’s)

"It marks another leap forward in the quest for quantum supremacy, with the team demonstrating computational power orders of magnitude beyond Google’s latest results."(ScitechDaily, China’s New Quantum Machine Runs One Million Times Faster Than Google’s)


The new Chinese quantum machine is not 1000 times faster than Google's. It's a million times faster. That means this quantum machine is the most powerful instrument in the world of calculations and AI-based hacking. The strength of that machine allows it to hack any private system in the world. And that makes the Chinese supercomputer a threat to national security.

 Modern science requires the most powerful and complicated formulas and algorithms. That ability is required especially in nano- and quantum technologies. There the system must observe and control even billions of variables. The quantum system and large language models, LLMs are the ultimate combinations. 

The AI-controlled morphing neural networks can control the qubits in the system. That makes the system more stable and trusted. The system can also make data fusion from different sources to search possibility that there are some kind of outside errors. Those outside systems collect data from system temperatures, radiation levels, seismic waves, and other kinds of things that can affect qubits. 


Without the ability to see errors, the system is useless.  The key elements in computing are error detection and error correction. In our brains that work is in the diencephalon. That layer checks data that come from the cerebral cortex. It stores that data into its memories and then sends it forward. 

Then the data travels to mirror cells that send feedback to the cerebral cortex. In that process, the diencephalon checks that data that traveled through the system is not changed. In the real world. There are multiple signals. That travels in the human brain vertically and horizontally. 

The purpose of those crossing axons is to combine data that comes from memory cells. When a computer or human brain handles data. That system combines data that sensors or senses bring with data. That is in memories. 

The quantum system requires a structure that acts like a diencephalon. Those levels store information for the time that the qubit will reload and its energy levels raise high enough.  

Data can travel in quantum computers in qubits only if the superpositioned and entangled particles are in different energy levels. So the system must adjust qubits after a certain time. At that point, the system must store data, to create superposition and entanglement and pump data to that quantum entanglements.

MIT researchers converted skin cells into neurons.



The ability to transform skin cells into neurons is an interesting thing. That is one way to create the cells to fix neuroimages in accidents. That is not the only thing. That this kind of version of bio-intelligence makes. 

Synthetic organic intelligence means hybrid systems that involve organic and non-organic elements. Those systems include microchips and living neurons. In some ideas, the hyper-powerful computer is the group of the brains under the dome. Those brains interact with computers using neural connections that are at the point, where the spine nerve normally goes. 

Microprocessors decode and encode signals between those neurons and the regular computers. 

The system is one version of the brain-computer interface,  BCI. 

And that system can be more powerful than we ever imagined. 

The ability to transform skin cells into neurons makes it possible to create new types of bio-hybrid microchips that mimic human brains better than regular microchips. The system can have three layers of living neurons. Those layers can act like human brains. And that is one of the most powerful and fundamental systems. 

That we can even imagine. It's possible that those systems can turn even more intelligent than humans. It's hard for us to imagine things like flat brains. The system can involve three boxes there are three layers of living neurons. 

And those three boxes form. The biological microchips that mimic human brains. That kind of system is one of the most intelligent and powerful than we can imagine. The ability to create artificial brains for machines is an interesting and same way frightening possibility. 

The ability to create large numbers of cloned neurons opens new paths for R&D work. But there are always risks in that kind of technology. The ability to create the singularity of brains and computers opens new and fascinating roads for people. I know that this kind of thing causes moralistic and ethical questions. That thing can make it possible to create new multipurpose, intelligent robots. 

And maybe in the future. That thing allows developers to create artificial humans. That brings new visions for long-term space travel. In that version, long-term space travel happens. By using normal AI-controlled spacecraft. Then at the destiny, the system creates the humans from the dataset. Every crew member's memories and DNA are stored in the computer. Then near destiny the AI creates cells that the system needs and then it bioprints those astronauts. 

That kind of biotechnology with 3D bioprinters makes it possible to bioprint even humans. 

This thing opens new roads to space systems. And it can also make it possible to create things. That we cannot even imagine. 

The thing is that we are just imagining theoretical systems that can transfer humans between stars. 

There will be hundreds of years before we can make routine flights in our solar system. Or that is the prediction. Maybe, that technology advances. Faster than we expect. 

But still, the road to another solar system is too far for technology. That we can produce in decades. It took centuries for technology to advance to a level that we can send spacecraft that can travel between Earth and Proxima Centauri in a human lifetime.

It's not the same who has the most powerful computer in the world.



The new Chinese quantum computer is 1000 times faster than the Google's computer. And this allows the Chinese to make new types of cyber attacks against other countries. The cyber attack capacity can provide to search and even control the financial power in the world. The AI-driven system can make more complicated attacks possible. 

Those attacks can make it possible to inject the spy's identities into highly secured workplaces that allow them to avoid security clearances. The system can mark those things done. And open the route to the classified material. 

Binary systems are helpless against the quantum computer-AI combination. And this is one of the reasons. For why advancing those systems is important. The more powerful quantum system can break any code that the slower quantum computer makes. 

Sometimes people ask: who has the most powerful computer in the world? And who cares about it anyway? It's not the same who owns the most powerful computer. Superiority in computing means superiority in many other research and scientific areas. 

But the most powerful computer can also turn into a threat in the wrong hands. The most powerful computers can break codes made by less powerful computers. This thing happens between binary and quantum computers. But the more powerful quantum computers can also break code that old-fashioned quantum computers made. 

And even the old-fashioned quantum computers can break codes that are made by using binary computers. That means. The Quantum computer gives a very high-power intelligence capacity for people, who have that kind of computer in their hands. The quantum computer makes calculations there the binary computers use years in a couple of minutes or even seconds. That thing makes those computers the biggest possibility and the biggest threat that we can imagine. 

So what if somebody can break any code on our planet? That thing turns communication vulnerable. It can even shoot nuclear weapons. But the other threat is that this kind of system can break that cryptocurrencies use. There is the possibility that the quantum computer can create a limitless mass of cryptocurrency. And then try to exchange those things into the real currency. And that can cause even hyperinflation. The problem is that the physical money doesn't fully match with the digital money. 

On this day money transactions happen over digital networks. And that means official money or currency is very close to cryptocurrency. So it's possible. That the quantum computer breaks the code of the national bank. Then that bank will start to create too much money. The idea is that the computer that makes the virtual version of currency is like the money-making press. 

The central bank puts certain crypto certificates into the digital currency. And if somebody can copy that certificate. They can make illegal copies of official money. The difference between crypto- and official currency is quite small. Cryptocurrency acts like stocks. When a person buys cryptocurrency that person can sell it anywhere there that cryptocurrency is noticed. 

Cryptocurrency is like a stock that a person can buy and change into real or official currency anytime when they want. Or they can buy things like other stocks from people who accept cryptocurrencies as payment. That allows traders to hide that deal from financial authorities. The official virtual currency is money that people use every day when they pay with bank cards. 

There is the possibility. Those quantum computers can also break the codes in financial life. That allows them to read messages that directors of the stock companies are writing to others. And that makes it possible to see things like the company's financial status. Or even control screens and data that the stock exchange authorities use. Faked curves in stock values are things. That can allow the attacker to make good profits.
