Get A Grip On Lighting Podcast Episode 334

The future is quantum. That's the key message from quantum LiFi tech entrepreneur Tony Lawrence in a recent episode of the Get A Grip on Lighting podcast. Tony Lawrence, a veteran in cybersecurity and intelligence, sees quantum technology transforming everything from communications to artificial intelligence.

Tony's company Lightrider Inc. is building quantum-secured networks using LiFi technology. LiFi encodes data in LED light signals, providing a hyper-secure alternative to WiFi. Lawrence explains how LiFi can already recognise individuals by how they walk and map rooms in 3D. This technology promises advances like diagnosing illnesses as patients enter quantum-lit hospital rooms.

However, the most disruptive applications involve artificial intelligence. Lawrence discusses how quantum computers generate entropy - unpredictable streams of random data. Entropy is essential for teaching AI systems to think independently rather than just mine existing datasets. Access to quantum entropy sources will allow AI to advance from analysis to fully autonomous decision-making.

Lawrence suggests widespread consumer access to quantum entropy could enable collective controls over AI. But there are also risks if centralized AI goes rogue. He argues that distributed quantum infrastructure makes society more resilient. People may even forge personal relationships with AI assistants possessing their own quantum entropy generators.

The takeaway is that quantum technology will transform digital identity, security, communications and artificial intelligence in the coming years. Despite geopolitical tensions, the entropy-driven nature of innovation means attempts to halt progress typically fail against natural forces pushing civilization forward. The future promises to surprise - quantum or not.

But ladies and gentlemen, it is not. Quantum is here today. Start with the entropy. That's the best way to do it is really easy to use. You can use it with your existing computer, your existing software applications doesn't have to be anything new. We all use entropy, but we're not using quantum entropy. Okay, so, Quantum is here today.”
