I generally don't like attending conferences . . . but how about these 3?!!!

. . . the resulting impact from these 3 conferences is what is driving our thinking and development most at EnviroAI--and our ongoing effort to build a quantum AI environmental protection system.

The 3 Greatest Conferences of All Time

(in no particular order)

I wanted to especially highlight this last conference. It was entitled "The Physics of Computation Conference". Noted attendees included Richard Feynman and John Wheeler. It was the first time a group of computer scientists and physicists met to discuss the strangely discovered potential power in the intersection of their fields--and the first time the word "quantum computing" was uttered.

--"Nature is computing."

--"Classical computing is really just an anthropocentric version of quantum computing."

--"The universe is not focused on how people compute. It has its own means of computing. We must learn and use nature's means of computing--which at a more fundamental level is quantum based."
