Can quantum computers turn psychohistory true?

 Can quantum computers turn psychohistory true? 


The psychohistory is introduced in Isaac Asimov's novel "The Foundation". The idea of this SciFi tool is this. By using Boltzmann's constant and modified formulas that were originally made for predicting the gas molecule's behavior in 3D space in very big entireties is possible to create an AI that can predict a large human group's behavior. The system uses statistics about things like economic situations and historical facts about the human or nation's behavior, and then it compares that data to things that happen just now. 

The fact is that this kind of mathematical and psychological-mathematical formula can be a reality quite soon. And the reason for that is quantum computers. Quantum computers can turn many things that were Sci-Fi tales into reality. 



In predictions, these types of mathematical formulas can be used to predict the behavior of large groups of humans. In the case of individual humans, there are lots of variables, and that's why we cannot create formulas that can predict the behavior of large human groups. But then we must remember one thing. 

Can we someday calculate a single individual's behavior? In that model, there are lots of variables needed. But quantum computers can handle even trillions of variables. And those systems can handle the human brain as a system there could be more axons than stars in the Milky Way. Quantum computer-based AIs can calculate multiple objects at the same time. And that thing is the tool that can make systems that predict individual human behavior. 

Our knowledge about the human nervous system increases all the time. Even if there are lots of variables we must remember that things like AI and quantum computers are good to handle multiple variables. And if we someday know precisely how our nervous system works. And what are the purpose and tracks for certain neurotransmitters? It's possible that someday we can predict or calculate individual human behavior. 

Quantum computers can handle the brain as the cloud. There are multiple neurotransmitters and neural tracks. The number of those tracks is enormous, but it's limited. AI and quantum computers with highly accurate state-of-the-art scanners are possible, that system uses brain images and create models or simulations about brain and neuron interactions inside the brain. 

The system could use modified programs that were developed to simulate the actions in a thundercloud. The neural connections could be lightning routes. And the neuro-transmitter-neuron interactions can be like interactions between water molecules and electrons. The system can use quantum computers to calculate how those neurotransmitters interact. That means, maybe in the future it will be possible to calculate a single person's behavior.

The LK-99 could be a fundamental advance even if it cannot reach superconductivity in 400K.

The next step in superconducting research is that LK-99 was not superconducting at room temperature. Or was it? The thing is that there is needed more research about that material. And even if it couldn't reach superconductivity in 400K that doesn't mean that material is not fundamental. And if LK-99 can maintain its superconductivity in 400K that means a fundamental breakthrough in superconducting technology.  The LK-99 can be hype or it can be the real thing. The thing is, anyway, that high-voltage cables and our electric networks are not turning superconducting before next summer. But if we can change the electric network to superconducting by using some reasonable material. That thing can be the next step in the environment. Superconductors decrease the need to produce electricity. But today cooling systems that need lots of energy are the thing that turn superconductors that need low temperatures non-practical for everyday use.  When the project begins there is lots of ent

Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.

 Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.  Black holes and gravitational waves: is black hole's singularity at so high energy level that energy travels in one direction in the form of a gravitational wave.  We normally say that black holes do not send radiation. And we are wrong. Black holes send gravitational waves. Gravitational waves are wave movement or radiation. And that means the black holes are bright gravitational objects.  If we can use water to illustrate the gravitational interaction we can say that gravitational waves push the surface tension out from the gravitational center. Then the other quantum fields push particles or objects into a black hole. The gravitational waves push energy out from the objects. And then the energy or quantum fields behind that object push them into the gravitational center.  The elementary particles are quantum fields or whisk-looking structures. If the gravitational wave is

The CEO of Open AI, Sam Altman said that AI development requires a similar organization as IAEA.

We know that there are many risks in AI development. And there must be something that puts people realize that these kinds of things are not jokes. The problem is how to take control of the AI development. If we think about international contracts regarding AI development. We must realize that there is a possibility that the contract that should limit AI development turns into another version of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. That treaty didn't ever deny the escalation of nuclear weapons. And there is a big possibility that the AI-limitation contracts follow the route of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.  The biggest problem with AI development is the new platforms that can run every complicated and effective code. That means the quantum computer-based neural networks can turn themselves more intelligent than humans. The AI has the ultimate ability to learn new things. And if it runs on the quantum-hybrid system that switches its state between binary and quantum states,
