I'd like to continue in that vein.
Yesterday I met with the quantum people from UBC, and I must admit that I don't understand much about how quantum physics works. It's one of those areas in which Canada has a real core of top world researchers. We have the same in AI. The government provided some funding for AI in this budget.
Is that the kind of funding that would make a difference? The quantum field is still quite nascent. There is little opportunity for the monetization of it by companies, but is that where we should be concentrating some of that research funding, in these areas where we have a concentration of work?
