EPiQC videos on Quantum Computing


The intuition of the oracle

This video introduces oracles, or black-boxes, used in many quantum algorithms. They began as an exercise in how to make quantum computing operations do something meaningful. This shows examples of black boxes in everyday life.

The video provides a conceptual understanding of a black box/oracle via humor and animation. It is the first in a series of videos about quantum oracles. You can continue to the second video here: https://youtu.be/-weWtHqLWvM


Using black box algorithms in quantum computing

This video builds upon our earlier video that introduced oracles or black boxes in everyday life. We now show how black box algorithms are used within quantum computing.

This video describes black boxes in the context of quantum computing. It is a sequel to the previous video about the conceptual basis of a black box: https://youtu.be/bF2_9PlhY_w
