This is kind of awesome -- running a quantum process on existing infrastructure instead of a dedicated (and supercooled) computer. Would love to see what comes next from this experiment.

The most immediate applications of the tech, he said, are in cybersecurity. “If you can use these to send your 0s and 1s, or use them as a way to create a key for your encryption, it’s much, much harder to hack them,” Namazi said. “If something happened to one of your photons, the other one immediately knows. And there’s nothing a hacker can do about that because there is no way to replicate this kind of connection.”
