We welcome back tech pioneers Brett Hurt and William “whurley” Hurley for a deep dive into the transformative influence of technological convergence. Drawing from their vast experiences, Brett and Whurley shed light on the intersection of advanced techs, such as generative AI and quantum computing, that are rapidly redefining our world. In our engaging discussion, we uncover the profound implications these emergent technologies have on industries, their role in supercharging productivity, and how they could catalyze an unprecedented surge in startup creation.Episode HighlightsThe conversation highlights a pivotal tech convergence, where AI intersects with quantum computing, Big Data, data privacy, and every other fundamental platform that has come before.  Generative AI's rapid rise has been met with excitement and unease, calls for political regulation, all amidst highly divergent dystopian and utopian views.Echoing similar themes, Brett envisions AI as potentially the "biggest startup and job creation engine we've ever seen," while whurley posits it leading to a "rise of the non-creative creative class," amplifying the transformative potential of the technology.Brett highlights the importance of creativity for engineers in the AI era, suggesting that those who can combine their technical skills with imagination will thrive, while those who can't may face commoditization.Whurley's recent dialogues with DC leaders underscores Austin's growing influence in shaping national technology policy and wider industry trends.What's next Austin?Brett Hurt: “I think that we're going to have an absolute explosion in the number of startups created. And as an effect of that, a derivative explosion in the number of jobs...I really want Austin to be the leader of that.” William “whurley” Hurley: “Everybody's talented, everybody plays an instrument, everybody paints or does art or they sculpt or whatever. It is a very creative city. So when you take those kinds of people and you give them this kind of power...like absolutely, Austin is next. If we're lucky.”Episode linksWilliam “whurley” Hurley: Website, LinkedIn, Twitter, StrangeworksBrett Hurt: Website, LinkedIn, Twitter, data.world Austin Next Links: Website, X/Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn

Quantum computing's has the world's attention, as investors turn a curious eye toward one of the semiconductor industry's most difficult-to-understand new trends. This is a completely different approach to computing that is built upon quantum physics principles like superposition and entanglement. Because of its different architecture and design, quantum computers can solve incredibly complex problems in a fraction of the time it would take for classical computers. Companies have been fascinated by this concept for decades. Large enterprises like IBM (NYSE: IBM) and Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) have pledged tens of millions of dollars and several years of fundamental in their attempt to build a useful quantum computer. But we're now also seeing smaller companies join the race as well. IonQ is crashing into the public markets via a SPAC merger, and Honeywell (Nasdaq: HON) is spinning off its quantum group into a SPAC of its own. There's now a publicly-traded Quantum Computing ETF, and venture capitalists continue to pour money into entirely new approaches. The advantages of quantum could be incredible. A commercially-available, useful quantum computer would disrupt many industries. Materials companies could perfect their design of new superconductors. Logistics or travel companies could optimize their global fleets. Drug makers could use simulations to create new synthetic molecules. But there are concerns about quantum that are raising a few eyebrows as well. Several of the soon-to-be-public quantum companies have hardly any revenue, yet their multi-billion-dollar valuations have led some to believe there are too many expectations already baked in. There are geopolitical concerns as well, as an international arms race to reach Quantum Supremacy could challenge the internet's existing cryptography measures or even sovereign security. There's a lot going on right now. And there's a lot more at stake than just bragging rights that awaits those who claim and who use the world's fastest computers. So what should investors make of this new quantum race? Is quantum indeed about to disrupt everything? Or are some investing expectations still out of touch with reality? To answer those questions, we've brought in a quantum expert. Whurley is an international legend in the software development world. After working in R&D at Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) and then as a Master Inventor at IBM, whurley went on to found and run several startups that innovated the fields of security, open source software, and even FinTech. He has 11 patents, has co-authored two books, and even personally hosted former President Barack Obama at Austin's SXSW conference. Now as the founder & CEO of Strangeworks, he is developing a software development tools that will help companies define their business problems and then harness the power of quantum computing to solve them. In this exclusive interview, 7investing CEO Simon Erickson chats with whurley about where the quantum computing industry currently stands. They describe what will drive its future adoption and in what applications it will serve most useful. They also discuss the recent popularity of quantum SPACs and where there could be opportunities for investors. The two then shift gears a bit, and whurley describes why open-source will continue to be the key for future software development. He also shares his thoughts about what's in store for cybersecurity and his expectations for virtual reality. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/7investing/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/7investing/support

Implanting chips into your brain, inter-dimensional travel and quantum computing.  Just a few years ago this would have all seemed like science fiction but in this day and age, we're able to achieve some extraordinary things.  Today I'm joined by tech entrepreneur and investor William Hurley, better known for his open-source community name ‘whurley'.  Whurley knows his stuff about technology, the recent advancements we've been making and what's really possible in the future.  Now I'm far from an intellect when it comes to things like quantum computing and open source software, but whurley dumbs it down for me in a way I can understand.  We talk about the different things technology is enabling us to do, how we got here, and the moral implications involved with where we're heading. We cover sci-fi stuff like interplanetary species, time travel, or whether we are in a simulation and how real our reality is. We also break down Elon Musk and SpaceX and how the Flat Earth movement and other conspiracy theories impact us. An incredibly clever man I'm left with my head spinning about travelling to other planets as some kind of advanced multi-limbed superhuman… “Sometimes as creators, inventors and scientists, we spend so much time wondering if we can do something that we never stop to think if we should.” – whurley Time Stamps: 06:38 – What it's like to succeed during Covid and the guilt that comes with that success. 09:31 – The difficulties with launching a product while promotional events are cancelled. 15:54 – What a quantum computer is and where the term ‘quantum' comes from. 23:43 – How quantum computing affects us in our day to day lives. 25:07 – Elon Musk, the team behind him, and how he's planning on getting to Mars. 27:18 – The value of inter-dimensional travel and the moral issues involved with it. 33:38 – Planting chips in your brain and the beneficial ways that can be used. 37:55 – The future of biohacking and the moral implications of where we're heading. 49:44 – The possibilities of time travel. 58:57 – The importance of open source and why it's so valuable.  Resources:  Strangeworks Chaotic Moon Studios The Day AI Becomes God Quantum Computing For Babies   Texas Real Food Connect with whurley: Twitter LinkedIn Facebook Instagram Connect with Patrick Scott Armstrong: Instagram Facebook Email More From The Lone Star Plate: Matt Mullenweg: Open Source Is THE Future

I believe, you know the  entrepreneurs credo ... to use it up, wear it out, make do, or do without. That should be, you know, the… the… the Bible, I think for entrepreneurs. Because it becomes too much about raising money and can create complacency in the company. I know how long 4,000,000 dollars will last - to the day ... and I will remind everybody in the company how many days we have left until we run out of this oxygen. That is this money in the startup.

When you’re successful, it’s all worth it. And when you’re in the middle and fighting those battles and you have those small wins, it’s super exhilarating. But it’s a form of gambling and you’re gambling with your career, and you’re gambling with your family, and you’re gambling with your life. And I don’t know that gambling should be romanticised Stephen In episode six have a Whurley describes,how risky the life of an entrepreneur is - although he embraces risk, he believes we should go in with our eyes open.
