Why people recommend it

Quantum Supremacy by Michio Kaku is an informative exploration of the revolutionary future of quantum computing and its potential to transform human technology. On an episode of StarTalk Radio titled The Future of Quantum Computing with Michio Kaku, host Neil deGrasse Tyson engaged with the author to discuss the unprecedented capabilities of next-generation computational systems. During their conversation, Tyson explicitly referenced the book's title to frame the discussion around the monumental shift toward machines capable of solving problems previously thought impossible for classical computers. Later in the episode, during the closing remarks, Tyson brought up the book once more to ensure the audience took note of the urgent warnings and exciting possibilities outlined by Kaku. By highlighting the publication at both the beginning and the end of the segment, the host emphasized the profound societal importance of understanding quantum technology as it rapidly approaches reality. The podcast discussion served as a compelling endorsement of Kaku's ability to make complex theoretical physics accessible and urgent for everyday listeners interested in the future of science.

Plugged
“so we'll be looking for your book just came out Quantum Supremacy how quantum computers will change everything and no doubt about it from how you described it it definitely will yeah all right Chuck always good to have you”
Plugged
“so that's why I decided to write this book Quantum Supremacy because it may eventually take a quantum computer to calculate with what is called string theory”
Plugged
“yeah the book is called Quantum Supremacy now what is that Quantum Supremacy is a time when quantum computers exceeded the power of a supercomputer on certain very specified problems”
