On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Prof. Peter Shor, the deviser of Shor’s algorithm. He explains the algorithm’s function of factoring large number and how this could be a revolution in quantum computing, what quantum computing is and what differentiates it from regular computing, the current technology of RSA encryption and why it is inefficient and expensive, why Shor’s algorithm can open the door to major advancements in medicine, chemistry, energy production and other major issues humanity faces today, why it is taking so long to mass-produce effective quantum computers, and much more.
