QUANTUM COMPUTERS

Imagine cruising at the speed of sound in an automatic car wait did you just picture yourself  handling the steering. at that speed there is no way you could get the controls right unless it is guided by a set of precise algorithms wired in the cars hard drive in that case you wont even need to manage the wheel the car will run on its own this has been the desired future of the auto industry for several decades but the modern computers which have helped us achieve most scientific goals are not even close to assessing the multiple possibilities that can arise on a busy street full of people animals and self driving cars chances are that such future cars will be conceptualised and realized based on quantum mechanics the branch of science that opens up the world of multiple possibilities the current state of technology is inept to solve quantum mechanics which happens to take an alternative view of the world it accounts for every possibility that you can possibly think of and also the ones that evade your imagination it then assigns a probability to each of them so theres always a chance of the most bizarre things existing in the quantum world like flying pigs and a frozen hell but heres the catch quantum mechanics is the study of microscopic subatomic particles which are capable of breaking certain barriers that are impossible to breach for macroscopic objects like say a ball quantum mechanics is based on the principle that such subatomic particles can exist in multiple states all at once and assume a specific state a specific characteristic only when tested or measured. the act of falling into a specific state or decoherence as they call it is due to the environmental factors since macroscopic objects are bigger and continuously bumping against these environmental factors they quickly attain a precise state.
