Summary
Sebastian Hassinger, host of The New Quantum Era podcast and author of a new book by the same name, is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Sebastian and Yuval have much in common beyond their work in quantum: both are podcasters, neither holds a PhD, and both are authors of new books — Sebastian's The New Quantum Era and Yuval's Quantum Bits, the Comic Book Guide to Quantum Computing . In a conversation more symmetric than the typical episode, they compare notes on the motivation and process of writing these books, the challenge of explaining quantum computing to non-physicists, and debate Hassinger's modality forecast. They also discuss their hypothetical dinner guests from the quantum greats, and much more. Get the books at: www.QuantumBitsComics.com/buy www.TheNewQuantumEra.com
