I can't say that I understand much about Quantum computers, but I don't need to. If I weren't so old, it would terrify me. I am sorry for our younger generations.
Yes, it’s a very fine line they walk. To be informed enough to handle wherever the future is headed, but in touch with the realty of everyday life, and to have time, and space, to simply be children.
Why, thank you, K.C.! I appreciate that you read my story, and I am delighted that you commented, as you did. The inspiration for this story was a documentary I watched, that floored me. I have since cleared my thoughts a bit, and know that, although this computer has the ability to do great things, or cause unbelievable chaos, My life will go on, until it doesn't...and I will be fine, until I'm not.
Thank you Jill! I know I’m okay…good, even! I just need to trust in the Universe, and the things I have no control over. This is one of those things! As the song goes, “Let it be.” And I will.
I hear you, Jill. I am a “people” person, and just like most, I don’t usually give much thought to AI, but even the scientists are scratching their heads, at what they have created, and that makes me more than a little uneasy. I don’t let it ruin my life, but sometimes…
Timeline curves cup my fingers to the bones and hold them in a parallel universe where willows bend with the wind to survive the next tick tock moment. It is too early to tell whether lighting will strike twice. I don’t stand under a tree with golf club in my hand. Chances are good lighting won’t strike twice. But I’m not going to wait and see the light show.

Sigh...
I don't know anything about quantum computing, but your first line is magnificent.

Stuck with AI? Nope! Not you. Not me.
There is "feeling" when AI strikes, and I go back to PEOPLE.
Thanks Sharon.
All I can respond with is enCOURAGE Meant in you being you!
