Every physical system registers information, and just by evolving in time, by doing its thing, it changes that information, transforms that information, or, if… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
“The significance of a bit depends not just on its value but on how that value affects other bits over time, as part of… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
[With quantum computers] you can calculate how many bits are in the universe, how much energy it takes to flip them, how much energy… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
In this metaphor we actually have a picture of the computational universe, a metaphor which I hope to make scientifically precise as part of… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
Yes, I am a quantum mechanic! Those darn quantum computers break all the time. — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
What's happened with society is that we have created these devices, computers, which already can register and process huge amounts of information, which is… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
If you wanted to build the most powerful computer you could, you can't do better than including everything in the universe that's potentially available. — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
There are considerable advantages to using many degrees of freedom to store information, stability and controllability being perhaps the most important. — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
When it comes to their capacity to screw things up, computers are becoming more human every day. — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
It's also a reasonable scientific program to look at the dynamics of the standard model and to try to prove from that dynamics that… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
Some folks think life and technology and mind can keep expanding forever. Others say it can't. We are still not clear on that. — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
Of course, one way of thinking about all of life and civilization is as being about how the world registers and processes information. Certainly… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
Programmed by quanta, physics gave rise first to chemistry and then to life; programmed by mutations and recombination, life gave rise to Shakespeare; programmed… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
Instead of having to be a member of the Royal Society to do science, the way you had to be in England in the… — Seth Lloyd Copy Share
