Feynman Predicted Quantum Computers 🔥 | “Nature Isn’t Classical”

Added: 2026-05-06

[00:00:00]Physicist Richard Feynman at a conference at MIT, Feynman looked at the trajectory [music] of classical computers and realized a fundamental problem.

[00:00:12]If you want to simulate [music] nature, real nature, the interactions of atoms, the birth of stars, the complex chemistry [music] of the human body, you can't do it with standard computers.

[00:00:25]Why?

[00:00:26]Because, as Feynman famously declared, "Nature isn't classical, damn [music] it."

[00:00:32]Nature operates on the bizarre, counter-intuitive laws of quantum mechanics.

[00:00:39]To simulate it, [music] he argued, you would need to build a computer that operates on those exact same quantum rules.
