Quantum Leap: Computing the Future

Quantum computing has gone from science fiction to front-page news—but is the excitement warranted? In this episode, we untangle the quantum buzz to explore why this field is heating up right now. Is it the dawn of a computing revolution, or just another hype cycle in tech’s ever-turning wheel?

We’ll break down the spooky-sounding science—qubits, superposition, and entanglement—into human language, and explore how quantum computing could transform industries like drug discovery, climate modeling, and supply chain optimization. But we’re also diving into the cybersecurity angle: how quantum computers threaten today's encryption, and what Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) is doing to save us from a crisis.

From real-world use cases to misunderstood myths, we’ll separate quantum fact from fiction. Whether you're a curious techie, a cautious executive, or just want to impress your friends with talk of Shor’s algorithm, this episode delivers the quantum clarity you didn’t know you needed.
