A Physics Lab Inside Your Head: Quantum Thought Experiments as an Educational Tool

Maria Violaris

Thought experiments are where logical reasoning meets storytelling, catalysing progress in quantum science and technology. Schrödinger's famous cat brought quantum science to the public consciousness, while Deutsch's thought experiment to test the many-worlds and Copenhagen interpretations involved the first conception of a quantum computer. I will show how presenting thought experiments using quantum circuits can demystify apparent quantum paradoxes, and provide fun, conceptually important activities for learners to implement themselves on near-term quantum devices. Additionally, I will explain how thought experiments can be used as a first introduction to quantum, and outline a workshop based on the “quantum bomb tester” for school students as young as 11. This paper draws upon my experience in developing and delivering quantum computing workshops in Oxford, and in creating a quantum paradoxes content series with IBM Quantum of videos, blogs and code tutorials.

Quantum Computing

Paul Thomas

On the one hand, we have machine learning; on the other hand, we face questions about learning at the quantum level. Can we develop AI for quantum computers? Do we need to understand the role of intuition in the brain to enable the emergence of a Human Artificial Intelligence (HAI)? Vision operates at the speed of light, while a quantum event occurs faster than thought, at infinite speed. Yet, this event is slowed down as a sensation, allowing it to be interpreted into icons and language by thought. Sensation, however, due to the intermediary of language, can never directly become thought. (This is discussed more fully in the section “Quantum Conceptualised.”)
