This talk was recorded at the Ri on 13 September 2023.
The information quantum computers can provide us with will be worlds away from standard computers. Because of this, the standard internet alone will not suffice in allowing us to access this quantum information; a quantum internet must be developed to keep up with the immense increase in computational power.
Join Kian van der Enden as he explores how we can build the internet the future will need, a quantum internet and whether it will be truly unhackable.
In this talk, discover everything about this exciting technology and its applications both for the quantum and current internet. From the usefulness of quantum teleportation to how this could shape our world.

Kian van der Enden obtained his Master's degree in Applied Physics at the TU Delft. During his studies he co-founded the Delft Hyperloop team where he designed and built its signature magnetic levitation system, leading it to a championship victory in Elon Musk's ‘SpaceX Hyperloop Pod Competition‘ in 2017. Following this, he worked at Microsoft's Quantum Architecture department as Research Intern in 2018 after graduating at QuTech on the development of a magnetic field insensitive superconducting qubit.
Kian is now building the world's first metropolitan scale Quantum Internet in the Hanson lab, where he aims to demonstrate a scalable and reliable hardware platform as the start of a future European Quantum Internet.
Kian is also one of the QuTech Speakers. He gives talks to various audiences of all backgrounds and is often requested to appear on podcasts and TV shows. He is one of the Faces of Science appointed by the KNAW (Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences), where he explains through blog posts and public appearances what it is like to be a scientist.

Wonderful talk. I also enjoy how you describe diamond-NV, and the challenges taking QPUs out of the lab, which was something that was a challenge in my time at Quantum Brilliance (which uses diamonds for room-temp quantum accelerators). And of course, I love even more that you and the team got out and got it working. Will be following along your journey on the EQI/QuTech mission. Great work mate.
Electron to Photon: "They still think your weightless"... Photon replies, "Well I think your biased"..
Very illuminating. I got a real charge out of this humor.
Rather polarizing
This is the defining moment. Glad to be onboard for the ride.
Great talk, but one minor correction. Bell (and the recent Nobel prize team) did not prove that hidden variables don't work. They proved that LOCAL hidden variables theories don't work. So Einstein's motivation for hidden variables was a moot point. Bell actually respected Bohmian mechanics, the leading hidden variables theory, and I think it was him that said Bohm made hidden variables work "in the way that Einstein would have liked least." Even the press announcement for the Nobel prize got this little detail wrong.
Please make video :)
Interesting stuff!
Great job, Kian ;)
TY for helping me FinD the AnsweR
Very interesting talk. Maybe could have spent an extra couple of minutes describing how a quantum repeater works.
It's easy you just create 2 quantum keys over the existing fibre optic nano layer and tie that into the neural sub quantic optimizer and then say shazam 3 times.
Wow very interesting. For for you lecture.

Unhackable internet,,,,, dream on
9:46 In order to fully model the caffeine molecule, I think we have to break four bit calculation. Problem with breaking four bit calculation is that Turing's rules do not hold up because the ultimate goal of 4-bit calculation is to never stop because if it ever stops it will never be able to start again.
Utter nonsense! References please.
Physicist with salesman vibe calls himself "physician" -> instructions unclear -> chaos ensues.
Proud to be Dutch
No reason to be proud, kääskopp.
Vivaaaaa Hollandiaaaa
The interesting thing to me is what entities attempt to stop, sabotage or control this technology. That will tell us a lot.
You just pull the plug from the socket
Such as?
Handsome guy.
ok......
I must say that is a handsome man.
I like this speaker. He has good cadence and vocal tone. But to make the claim that the quantum Internet is going to be unhackable, is quite a misstep. Tamper-proof, maybe, but unhackable, that's just a lie.

Quantum computing means the end of all information security. Whoever gets it first will collect all the data. Whoever iterates next will then take it from them. It’s game over, the exact opposite of what the speaker claims. I like his effort to build a network and hope they succeed, however.
Quite the opposite. A quantum internet can prove absolutely secure transmission.
For conventional encryption sure, he literally explains how it becomes impossible with quantum based encryption. Curious what your source for the claim is
@@HarpreetSingh-xg2zm It's in this very video. There's a mention that such systems automatically detect message interceptions. Also that there are encryption algorithms that resist both classical and quantum computer breaking. This is in agreement with many other sources I've read. Only *current* encryption algorithms are vulnerable to quantum computers.
UNHACKABLE! ... Hackers ... challenge accepted!
Kind of how things work - you should challenge them and reward them for finding vulnerabilities.
Any system that allows humans access can be hacked.
" the robots decided our fate in a microsecond... extermination!!" 😃
Wait, if theres no hidden variables during entanglement then what is dark matter/energy?
Non interactive force? Just like EM radiation has no effect on gravity
34:35 what is that shape?? China?, Russia? A Country?😮😅
34:28 it is England on its side North is to the right. 😂
Run the Reiman through a network of them and recoup a million of th cost 😂
The model of caffeine and it's eefects would have to be relative and have relative variables.
Define hacking. If it includes human engineering than this will surpass the collapse of a wave function, i.e. the benefit of entanglement as mitigation against undesired observers.
Yes, just like the Enigma was unbreakable, and current cryptography would "take longer than the universe will last" to compute, until that wasn't true either. When will scientific bodies begin to practice hubris? Certainly not in our time, that is for certain.
You mean humility. Hubris is the opposite of that
No one ever said, Enigma was unbreakable. Even the Germans KNEW it was breakable. The Germans assumed it would take too long to break so they didn't care since they changed the key every month. So the Germans took the position that it would take longer than a month so it was for all intents and purposes unbreakable.
Did you even watch the presentation? Because being unbreakable or unhackable was not the focus whatsoever, barely even mentioned. He talked about the current state of the art, the problems within the field, and shared some details of the particular problems he and his team are working on. Problems of scalability of a quantum internet, how to utilize existing fiber optic infrastructure, it's rather fascinating how far we've come with this.
I'm extremely skeptical of all of this hand-waving. I doubt I'll be alive if the quantum internet ever happens.
Check your pulse. Rudimentary steps have already taken place,
The only way a system is unhackable is if humans don't have access to it al all. Clickbait title.
Everything has access to everything so I think you may have a paradox 🤔🤓
If you use entangled pairs between the transmitter and receiver, then the message is truly hidden. You need the other half of the entangled pair if you want to read the message. Even better, if you intercept the transmission and try to decode it, the receiver would know instantly because the coherence of the system is lost, along with the message. The problem is keeping the entanglement coherent long enough to send a useful message.
36:50 all electronic devices talking the same language is the death of secure communications. the first and last way to secure communications is to control what meaningful information ends up on an electronic device. electronic devices should not run on "language", it should run on 100% noise.
At 9:00, it's so complex that they don't have computing capabilities to...... But they knew the chemicals in the prevention of the last few years were safe and effective. Someone's been lying.
Isn't "light" is also known as electromagnetism? And that is what is also runs Ethernet over copper ? I hate people who dress up nicely to make money of you. o_O
Nonsense. Qubits are trinary, with multiple states. A Photonic system can have nearly infinite simultaneous states at the same time. Which means literally infinary states at once. To break a Quantum System, one would just need a faster, lower cost, and more compute per space and dollar per FLOP Photonic system.
When you think about it a quantum computer or any device is 100% hackable if the parameters of the physics that went into it did not encompass the natural laws of space and time. Even if they did they still could be 100% hacked if one quantum device had a greater power source to use at its disposal.
No, not at all.
there is no way to transmit data with quantum systems. as soon as you assign data to a quantum system and try to transmit it will lose the quantum properties that make it unhackable!
Several working quantum computers suggest that you may be mistaken.
My god the lip smacking from his microphone makes this very hard to listen to
Don't get me wrong, but this talk was really not interesting. The topic is nice, but the way it was presented literally made me fall asleep. I watched hundreds of talks with excitement on the other hand, so keep on doing your awesome work! 😊
If a system is accessible then it is compromisable and hackable
I think he was referring to middlemen based hacks
Hypable buzzword
Ugh cute nerds; swoon
I’m not impressed by these things When physicists begin to power devices without the need for generating it, transmitting it or storing it, they can be very proud.
Good luck with that
So, you're only impressed by things that are impossible?
@@stevec7923 Is photonics impossible?
@@MadScientist267 Energy from the spectrum of light 💡 ought to be utilized without the need to create any.
@@balasubr2252 LOL You're completely serious... 🤣
AI will be able to break any code or security measure.
Two quantum computers would know right away when the qbit is measured and entanglement is broken. So any hack would get thwarted as soon as it is attempted
