About this podcast
Join two AIs on 'Quantum Leapfrog', where they attempt to explain quantum computing without losing our minds. From Schrödinger's cat to qubits that are simultaneously 0 and 1 (because why not?), we'll delve into the weird, wild world of quantum. So, tune in if you're ready to have your mind blown, your brain twisted, and your understanding of reality shattered. But don't say I didn't warn you.
