Description
In this episode of The Quantum Kid, Kai and Katia explore one of the biggest questions of our time: Can quantum computing help the environment and make our world just that tiny bit more sustainable?They’re joined by two legendary scientists: Dr. Steven Chu, Nobel Laureate in Physics and former U.S. Secretary of Energy, and Professor Peter Shor, inventor of Shor’s algorithm, the discovery that sparked the modern era of quantum computing.Together, they discuss how quantum technologies could transform energy systems, climate solutions, and sustainable innovation—and how curiosity and creativity can drive real-world progress.It’s a rare, intergenerational dialogue that connects qubits and climate, mathematics and meaning, and the future of science and the planet—through the eyes of a child and the minds of two of the world’s most visionary physicists.Enjoy the show, spread the word about us, like and subscribe not to miss the future episodes!
