Juan Ignacio Cirac: "AI is collapsing the scientific career as we have known it"
Spanish physicist Juan Ignacio Cirac, director of the theoretical division at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics since 2001, warned that artificial intelligence is driving a paradigm shift in the scientific career, especially among younger researchers. Cirac, a pioneer in quantum computing, took part in the Passion for Knowledge festival in San Sebastián, organized by the Donostia International Physics Center, where he discussed the field's challenges and the leap of the past three or four years. He also noted that someone could be using quantum computers to decipher messages without it being noticed.
