23  Nous is a cheat

  Hearing the artificial intelligence, David simply brought up a holographic screen as he began searching for what a quantum-classical hybrid computer was.

  He could swear that he wasn't dumb, but this was the first time, he was hearing such a term, he knew about quantum computers but what the hell was a classical computer.   The first thing to surprisingly come to mind was the older generation computers like the vacuum tubes and all that but he had a feeling that wasn't what the term was referring to.

  After a brief search, David finally had a small idea of what Nous was talking about. Quantum computers or at least real quantum computers were nothing like they showed in fictional movies and series.

  Real Quantum computers were truly computers but unlike regular computers, they were completely useless to the regular person. Of course, this didn't mean that they didn't have their uses.

  Quantum computers allowed for corporations and governments to perform tasks like regulate the economy, predict the weather, invent new materials and drugs etc. All these were important but to the regular guy, they were useless.

  Classical computers turned out to be the regular kind of computers that everyone used. The Windows, MacBook etc are all classified as Classical computers and Quantum-classical computers were the types of quantum computers, all saw in fiction.

  They were used in sci-fi series to allow the characters communicate with each other over planetary spaces, play games like in the movie 'Ready Player One'.

  Nous was a splendid example of quantum-classical computers. It allowed him to do all a quantum computer could do easily, but it could still send regular messages, call etc.  Truthfully though, Nous was probably beyond even the most advanced Quantum-classical computer but for now, it was the closest thing that he could recognize as a quantum-classical computer.

  Also, as Nous had said, if he could create... well, when he creates a fully realized quantum-classical computer, he would earn at least a billion dollars within its first week of launch.

  This is solely because of the benefits of a quantum-classical computer over the quantum and the classical computers. They could combine the best of both computers into one and if fully realized then things could get really ridiculous.

  From what he was seeing online, the closest example to a quantum-classical computer he could find was Iron-man's suit. 18:05

    The suit isn't truly a quantum-classical computer but Nous says that what Jarvis was been hosted on had to be on such level for it to achieve what it achieved in the movies

[Sir, I would suggest you get up and do other things, you have been sitting there for almost three hours now] Nous reminded as it pulled David out of his mini-research

"Really?" David asked in shock as he finally put away the screen

     Turns out that even something deemed annoying such as learning can be fun if one was doing to for personal gain and for just pure curiosity.

       Looking around his surrounding, David found that it was already dark. He was still in his suit, his shoes were scattered on the living room floor due to his distraction.

"If Aunty heard that I actually read something for four hours, she will go for Thanksgiving" David said as he chuckled.

        Despite being a nerd and a writer, David wouldn't say that he had ever say to learn more about a particular thing for such a long time before.

      True, he had done similar research in the past for his book but those were usually related to fantasy. Like finding what mythology, certain creatures originated from.

       As for doing anything as serious as this, he had never done so and though he would like to be able to do so. He found learning stressful.

"Did anything happen while I was distracted?" David asked as he got up and began tidying up. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

[Yes, the Aldari have been finally welcomed into the Intergalactic community. The Hive in sector 2906283 managed to make their first non-violent assimilation and plans to continue in such a manner....]

     Nous began rambling on and on as David simply stood and watched in confusion. He had simply asked for any related update and Nous turned into some kind of universal News outlet.

"Nous!, I meant anything related to me happen while I was distracted" David said as he quickly stopped it.

       He knows if the AI was simply trolling him or had just taken his question literally. He also wasn't too sure if it had answered his question but on a much larger scale than he expected.

[Nothing noteworthy, sir however I will like to tell you that your new house is ready] Nous replied

"That's great then, tomorrow we move in" David said as a large smile formed on his face.

      Within minutes, David todied up the entire house and had already packed all that he actually needed or at least planned to take with him. The rest would either be sold or given out.

     The new house was already furnished and all it's facilities were definitely better than what he had now. There was no point to taking them with him so he planned to sell and if selling was slow, then he could simply give it out to his neighbors.

      While David worked to select what to move into his new house with, the internet slowly went crazy as they all visited the page of a certain content creator.

"... if you are joining us for the first time, welcome to Gamer's Guide to Every game, a place where we try to explore the fastest means to beat a game. Today we are talking about the extremely annoying Renovatio..." the content creator said on his live

      The more he talked, the more and more people joined in on the live to see what was going on. The young man who looked to be of northern origins.

     He looked to be in late twenties or had just entered his early thirties. At the moment though, he could be seen sitting on his chair and focused on the screen before him as he spoke.

Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
