Risks of modern computing

Kimmo Huosionmaa

What is a threat to quantum computers? Those machines are so fast to handle calculations that, they can break almost every code in the world, and that makes ultra-fast computers very dangerous in wrong hands. The problem with secrecy and confidentially in the net is that every secrecy system is made with computers, what is possible in that time. And that’s why all security solutions need to be updated simultaneously.

If those algorithm is getting old, the information what it hires will become available for hackers. And modern computers might be very fast. If their processors will be used in liquid nitrogen, they will become superconducting. That means there will be no resistance in the system, and that’s why those computers are really fast. Same way ultra-small components make possible to make very powerful small size computers.

A nanotechnology is a powerful tool for computer technology. It allows the engineers to build an atomic size component. The nano technical transistor might consist of three atoms, what formulates stand, collector, and emitter in atom size. And of course, the artificial intelligence is a strong component in computing. If we can create an artificial intelligence, what can generate own ideas, and what can use imagination and have feelings, that makes computers dangerous because feelings make them feel hate.


But the most dangerous things of artificial intelligence is that they will be conscious of themselves. That might happen a situation, where machines will rebel. The power of the robots is that they have no feelings and that's why they are ideal to work in military use. But if robots have feelings they might become very dangerous. Have you ever imagine, what if some engineer uploads program, what simulates feelings in some Predator UCAV's (Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle) main computer? Can you imagine, if that computer-controlled killing machine will feel anger against some target? This situation might be so terrible, that I don't think it with pleasure.


Normal computers don't have imagination, but if we connect neuron cells to the microprocessor, the computer might become surprisingly working tool. In those test will the neurons connect to microprocessors, and the reason for that kind of test is to test computers, what can really think. Those neurocomputers can do same things than living organisms. The problem of those machines in to feed those cells, what communicates with the inorganic microchip with electric signals. That will make computers a skill to produce new things. And those things are of course interested in the people, who make UCAVs.


Those intelligent UCAV's might equip with the computer, what microchip is boosted with dragonfly's or other bugs neuron cells, what might give their extreme air combat capacity, what normal UCAVs doesn't have. The normal computer makes only moves, what are programmed in that system, and when enemy learns those  UCAV's movements, they would become easy to drop. But those biologically boosted microchips can able to give those robots a capacity to make surprising actions. And if that technology goes to wrong hands, could that cause terrible things.
