Quantum Computing – The End of Uncertainty
Quantum computing will likely be mankind’s most disruptive technological innovation, ever. Quantum computing, coupled with AI, will profoundly impact every aspect of human life. Google recently debuted their new quantum computing chip, Willow. Willow performs computations within a nanosecond that would take today’s most sophisticated supercomputer more than 10 septillion years to compute. This massive computing power will effectively eliminate future uncertainty and will dramatically change the risk management profession forever.
The session will examine dramatic changes to the risk management profession over the next 5 – 10 years. We will discuss how the risk management profession will be fundamentally reshaped and how risk practitioners can pivot and re-skill. Re-skilling will be imperative if risk practitioners are to remain relevant in this bold new world of AI and quantum computing. The elimination of uncertainty requires risk practitioners to prioritize strategic planning, organizational resilience, and key risk indicators (KRI) over nearly all other traditional risk management practices. This session will offer a roadmap that enables risk practitioners to re-skill during the quantum computing transition period (next 5 – 10 years) so they become industry thought leaders as quantum computing supplants traditional computing in the next 10 – 20 years.
