Are quantum computers the game-changer they're described to be, or is the promise of exponential speedup overblown? Join pioneer Seth Lloyd and Brian Greene as they discuss how the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics are leveraged by quantum computers, and the algorithmic challenges in achieving the promised exponential power.

This program is part of the Big Ideas series, supported by the John Templeton Foundation.
