Science Seminar 2025 quantum age begins
potentials and challenges.
What is IQ?
Recognizing the importance of quantum
science and the need for wider awareness
of its past and future impact, dozens of
national scientific societies gathered
together to support marking 100 years of
quantum mechanics with a UN declared
international year. The 2025
International Year of Quantum Science
and Technology IYQ recognizes 100 years
since the initial development of quantum mechanics.
mechanics.
The UN has designated 2025 as the
international year of quantum science
and technology recognizing that quantum
science has reached the point where it
its promise is moving out of the
experimental phase and into the realm of
practical application.
In celebration of the 100th anniversary
of the discovery of quantum mechanics,
UN has declared 2025 as the
international year of quantum science
and technology.
If that milestone catches you off guard,
don't be surprised as much of the
activity and focus around quantum
computing happens with little fanfare.
Progress is steadily being made with
quantum research. But the day when
somebody can truly master quantum
mechanics and release its true potential
has remained elusive.
When that does happen, the good news is
that quantum computers will potentially
be able to solve in seconds extremely
complex tasks that currently takes
years. The bad news is that quantum
computers could not solve the data
puzzles that are at the heart of
encryption protection, leaving all
system and data immediately vulnerable.
The advent of quantum computing is a
double-edged sword, offering
unparalleled compute power while posing
unprecedented cyber security challenges.
The transition to postquantum
cryptography may seems daunting. But
with the right resources, strategic
planning and trusted partnerships,
enterprises can ensure the protection of
sensitive data against future quantum
cyber attacks. Hence 2025 is the year of
quantum science. What's that all all
about? The quantum age characterized by
the practical application of quantum
technologies like computing and
communication offer significant
potential benefits but also present
substantial challenges. While quantum
computing could re revationalize fields
like drug discovery and AI and quantum
communication promises secure data
transmission, scalability, high cost and
security risk need to be addressed. The
quantum age refers to the era where our
understanding and applications of
quantum mechanics are rapidly advancing
leading to transformative technologies
in various fields. It is characterized
by the development and practical use of
quantum technologies like computing,
communication and sensing. This era
follows previous technological ages
defined by materials like stone, iron
and silica.
Here's a more detailed breakdown.
Quantum mechanics and the core. The
quantum age is rooted in the principles
of quantum mechanics which governs the
behavior of matter and energy at the
atomic and subatomic levels.
Beyond traditional computing, the
quantum computing with its potential to
solve complex problems beyond the reach
of classical computers is a key aspects
of this age.
Transformative technologies. Quantum
technologies are poised to re reverize
various fields including computation.
The quantum computers could
revolutionalize scientific research,
cryptography and data analysis, communication.
communication.
Uh the quantum commun communication
technologies offer enhanced security and
faster data transfer.
In case of sensing, the quantum sensors
could enable more precise measurements
and diagnostics in various applications.
A shift in understanding. The quantum
age signifies a shift in our
understanding of information and its
processing. Moving from classical to the
uh quantum principles,
national and global impact. The race to
develop quantum technologies is a global
effort with significant investment from
governments and private companies
indicating its potential to reshape the
economies and the societies.
When we will discuss the potential
benefits, the quantum computers have the
potential to solve complex problems that
are currently in traceable for classical
computers, potentially accelerating drug
discovery, material sciences, and AI development.
development.
Quantum key distribution QD and other
quantum communication methods offers the
potential for ultra seccure data
transmission, safeguarding the sensitive information.
information.
The quantum based sensors can achieve
extreme precision
in measurement leading to advancement in
navigation, medical imaging and
scientific research. The quantum
technologies can be used to simulate
molecular interactions enabling a deeper
understanding of fundamental processes
and potentially leading to new
scientific breakthroughs.
The challenges are the first one is the
technological limitations. Building and
maintaining quantum computers and other
quantum devices requires highly
specialized hardware and operates under
extreme conditions making them expensive
and difficult to scale. The scalability
increasing the number of cubits cubits
means the quantum bits in a quantum
computer to a level where it can solve
practical practical problems is a major
engineering hurdle.
high cost and infrastructure needs. The
quantum technologies require significant
investment in research, development and
infrastructure potentially creating
barriers to entry.
The security risk are while quantum uh
communication offers enhanced security,
the development of quantum computers
also poses a threat to current
encryption methods requiring the
development of postquantum cryptography.
Ethical and the policy issues. The
potential uh social societal impact of
quantum technologies including issues of
privacy bias and job displacements
requires careful consideration.
Skilled workforce shortage. A shortage
of skilled professionals in quantum
computing and related fields could
hinder the progress that adoption of
these technologies.
A campaign to make quantum better
understood is rather than commemorate a
particular event or development in
quantum research. The UN designation is
more intended to make quantum science
more approachable and understandable.
explaining what quantum computing means
for everyday life in simple terms says
Arthur Tishi the founder of Hunova and
co-founder of base forge an advanced
technology advisory that deals with
quantum computing artificial
intelligence and machine learning strategies
strategies
the quantum age refers to a new era of
science and technology driven by quantum
mechanics especially quantum computing
and quantum communication these
technologies promises revolutionary
changes across many industries
this technology is based based on the
principles of quantum mechanics which
describe the strange behavior of
particles at very small atomic and
subatomic scales. The two key concepts
are the superposition. A quantum bit or
a cubit can be multiple states at once 0
and one unlike a classical bit
entanglement. Two particles can be
instantly connected even if they are far
apart. These principles allow for much
more powerful computing and secure communication.
communication.
Potential of the quantum age sector
quantum impact the cyber security
quantum encryption like quantum key
distribution will make data transmission
ultra secure quantum computing can solve
complex problems much faster than
today's computers like simulating
molecules or optimizing the large systems

it can help in drug discovery the DNA
analysis and disease modeling AI and big
data quantum systems can process access
large data sets for more efficiently
boosting machine learning. Space and
defense quantum communication could
enable unhackable communication for
military and satellites.
The challenges in the quantum era are
the stability and error. Cubits are very
sensitive to noise and temperature.
Quantum computers often make errors.
High cost building and maintaining
quantum machines is extremely expensive.
Lack of experts. Quantum science is
complex and there are not enough trained
professionals. Ethical use. The quantum
power could be used for hacking or
surveillance if mus is if misused.
Standardization. There is no common
frame framework or software platform
yet. Every everyone is building
different models. While the road ahead
the world is still in the early stage of
quantum age similar to how classical
computers were in the 1950s. progress is
fast but practical everyday use is still
a few years away.
Hence the fundamental idea or the
conclusion is the quantum age brings
immense potential to reshape science,
security and society. But it also comes
with technical, ethical and economical
