Joe Rogan (0:01)

Joe Rogan Podcast, checking out The Joe Rogan Experience.

Brian Redban (0:06)

Trained by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day. And we're up.

SPEAKER_4 (0:15)

Good to see you.

Joe Rogan (0:17)

Did you see that new information about China came out with a new quantum computer that can do an equation in four minutes. It takes all the world's supercomputers 2.6 billion years to solve.

Brian Redban (0:34)

Really?

Joe Rogan (0:34)

And it can do it in four minutes.

Brian Redban (0:37)

Is that real, though?

Joe Rogan (0:38)

I mean, allegedly, allegedly, that's the problem with this whole quantum thing is I don't understand. I've had it explained to me four or five times.

SPEAKER_7 (0:46)

I don't understand it.

Brian Redban (0:48)

Yeah. It's just my monkey brain is like, they also say a lot of things, you know, right? Like, so who knows if it's real or not?

Joe Rogan (0:55)

Well, you mean China?

Brian Redban (0:56)

Yeah, China.

Joe Rogan (0:58)

But they have American ones that have done them too. They've done some crazy, like Mark Andreessen explained one of them. It's so nuts, he said that it solved a computer that if you took, it solved an equation if you took all of the world's atoms and converted it into a supercomputer, all the universe's atoms, excuse me, and converted it into a supercomputer, it would take so much time to solve this equation that the universe would die of heat death and this quantum computer solved it in a matter of minutes.

Brian Redban (1:32)

Wow.

SPEAKER_8 (1:33)

Well, I don't know what it means, though.

Joe Rogan (1:35)

I think what they're trying to say is that this somehow or another is proof of the multiverse because all of these computers are somehow or another, like this quantum, the idea is this quantum computer is computing along with other quantum computers in other dimensions, other universes, other something, other realms, and that there's an infinite number of them, that there's so many of them, that that's the only thing that can account for this thing, being able to do this so quickly. Right? So you're like, okay, what are you saying? Like, what are you saying? What are you doing? What does this mean?

SPEAKER_7 (2:20)

How many people know this?

Joe Rogan (2:21)

This is what's weird, right? Let's assume that they're telling the truth, and let's assume that they've figured out a computer that can, it's got godlike powers, right? How many fucking people know how this works? Like, what is the number? Like, if all those people got assassinated, and those machines were just sitting there, just like, off, how long would it be before somebody came along that could figure out how to start that up again?

SPEAKER_9 (2:46)

Do you know what I'm saying?

Joe Rogan (2:47)

Like, are we dealing with, like, so this is, it might be the most monumental technological breakthrough in the history of the human race, right? If something has to be, right? And then you think of what it can do once it does that.

SPEAKER_9 (2:59)

And how many people know how to make that?

Brian Redban (3:01)

One schizophrenic. He's been trying to tell us the whole time.

Joe Rogan (3:07)

Is it like one dude? Is this like one dude that they just feed and take care of and guard him everywhere he goes? Like, he's the guy. He figured this fucking thing out. No one knows how this magic works. I mean, if you had to guess, like, how many quantum computer scientists that could successfully recreate a quantum computer, given enough resources?

Brian Redban (3:27)

30, maybe.

Joe Rogan (3:28)

30? Maybe on the planet.

SPEAKER_4 (3:29)

Maybe.

Brian Redban (3:29)

Yeah.

SPEAKER_4 (3:29)

Maybe.

SPEAKER_8 (3:30)

And what?

Joe Rogan (3:31)

30 out of 8 billion? 30 out of 8 billion. I don't even know if we're right, but let's assume we're right.

SPEAKER_7 (3:38)

Let's say 100

Joe Rogan (3:39)

Let's get crazy.

SPEAKER_7 (3:40)

Let's say 100

Joe Rogan (3:41)

What if those 100 people, what if some fucking Mongolian assassin just gets hired, just take out all of them, and they'd all start dropping like flies?

SPEAKER_4 (3:54)

Yeah. Yeah.

Joe Rogan (3:57)

It's weird when there's technology that's at a level where you gotta go like, how many people know how to do that? Like, you were just showing me your phone.

SPEAKER_7 (4:04)

Like, show me that phone again. This is so sexy.

Joe Rogan (4:07)

This, ladies and gentlemen, is the new Samsung Fold, and I swear to God, when you hold it in your hand, it feels like a regular phone. And then, bam.
