The path to Quantum Readiness :
On the eve of World Quantum Day 2024, which is an international, community-driven event on April 14,this post suggests a path to Quantum Readiness. The global race in Quantum Technologies has been accelerated, because not only are Nations putting their might and budget to push the developments, individual entrepreneurs with startups and large corporations with deep pockets for investments are also in the game. Why Quantum ? : https://mmpant.com/why-quantum/About 100 years ago, there was a revolution in Physics :the birth of Quantum Physics. Today it touches the lives of billions of people.This is a one month ( 4 week) program designed specifically for children at School between classes 9 to 12. It basically responds to the two questions Why you should learn Quantum while at School and how could you do it?Learning Quantum at School : https://mmpant.com/learning-quantum-at-school/Demystifying Quantum is a weeklong ( Monday to Friday) Whatsapp delivered course using 21st century pedagogy of ‘active learning’ ( https://mediatheque.lindau-nobel.org/recordings/38480/dont-lecture-me ) augmented with AI and chatGPT to make Quantum concepts and technology accessible to all. This is a very big challenge, because the early pioneer of Quantum concepts, Neils Bohr had said “ If Quantum Mechanics hasn’t profoundly shocked you, you haven’t understood it yet”. And Richard Feynman who developed a new ‘ path integrals’ approach to Quantum Mechanics had said “ I think I can safely say that nobody understands Quantum Mechanics”. But he also emphasised the nature is Quantum and exhorted fellow Physićists to work on creating a quantum Comouter with the following words “ Nature isn’t classical, dammit, and if you want to make a simulation of nature, you’d better make it quantum mechanical.” Demystifying Quantum : https://mmpant.com/qlw1-demystifying-quantum/The first quantum revolution that gave us the transistor, laser etc. didn’t make full use of quantum mechanics. The stage for the second quantum revolution was set in the 1960s, when John Stewart Bell shook the foundations of quantum mechanics and proposed that entangled particles were correlated in strange quantum ways.The 1st Quantum Revolution : https://mmpant.com/qlw2-the-1st-quantum-revolution/The Second Quantum Revolution involves advancements in quantum computing, quantum communication, quantum sensing, and quantum materials that harness principles of quantum mechanics for practical applications.The 2nd Quantum Revolution : https://mmpant.com/qlw3-the-2nd-quantum-revolution/And Galileo had said almost 400 years earlier “ The laws of nature are written in the language of Mathematics”. To understand Quantum, there is a mathematical barrier also, but modern neuroscience says that this barrier can be overcome by the motivated.
