We try to unravel mysteries of Quantum Computing through our Conversations.

Today we're diving into the mind-bending world of quantum computing with Neha, a cybersecurity and cryptography whiz, who makes the complex sound like a chat over coffee. If you've ever wondered whether quantum computers will someday read your mind or just turn your coffee into code, this is the episode to tune into.

In this episode:

• Why quantum computing is more "science magic" than "magic trick"
• The big myth: quantum computers won't replace classical ones, just enhance them
• How superposition, entanglement, and Qbits turn computation into a superpower
• Post-quantum cryptography: shields against the quantum threat
