OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
Welcome to The Quantum Kid, where 9-year-old Kai and his physicist mom, Katia Moskvitch, talk to scientists, innovators, and entrepreneurs building tomorrow's world. Big questions, real answers, all explained simply.
In this first episode, Kai explores big questions with:
- His mom, physicist and STEM communicator, former WIRED business editor Katia Moskvitch
- A quantum expert: ETH Zurich Quantum Information Professor Renato Renner
- A business leader: patent attorney, investor, and Kai's uncle, Andrei Moskvitch
We've all heard the buzz around quantum computing, but what are quantum computers, really? They're not just faster. They think differently, which helps them solve complex problems like modeling weather or optimizing flight routes. Could they fly a plane remotely? Not today, but one day they might help make better, faster decisions in unpredictable environments. Why does this matter for business? Quantum could unlock major value in logistics, materials science, and beyond, but only if we ask the right questions now and invest in educating bright, curious minds. Simple questions lead to deep insights, and Kai proves that curiosity might just be the ultimate quantum tool.
