quantum computer revolution

Another revolution has started! The Quantum computers are coming. Probably after 50 years from now, people will look back and laugh at our current most powerful computers and the concerns about Artificial Intelligence! It will be something like the way we laugh at Bullock-cart when we are traveling by aircraft! Or it will be like the way we remember using log tables for large computations while writing a computer program to compute million times more complex calculations within seconds (I have done that both: using log sheets 40 years ago, and using computer now and writing computer programs).

Within next decade, conventional computer programming by humans will cease to exist. Those of us who bragg about knowing python or C (FORTRAN is already obsolete ), will be reduced to zero-valued human assets. A higher level of intelligence, now known as AI, will pervade the world in all domains! 

This is not to say that the development will be uniform all over the world. Bullock-carts are still being used in some parts of the world. But that is because of socio-political-economic reasons!

Future inequality in the world will be based more on intellectual inequality. Countries and people who will stick to faith-based thinking process like god or religion, will be the backward class in evolved civilization. While others will be busy in exploring deeper into understanding the universe using quantum computers, traveling and perhaps start migrating to other parts in universe. Those who can not cope up with advancement of technology and can not develop a rational and scientific thinking process, will be isolated intellectually from the mainstream. Just like aborigines of some Andaman Islands. They got isolated geographically, current or future isolation is intellectual.
