Key findings

  1. 1985

    The universal quantum computer

    David Deutsch

    Defined the quantum Turing machine and argued a quantum device can simulate any physical system efficiently.

    Why it matters here · The theoretical licence for every machine in the Quantum segment.

  2. 2014

    VGGNet — depth with 3×3 convolutions

    Karen Simonyan and Andrew Zisserman

    Showed that stacking small uniform filters to 16–19 layers beat wider, shallower designs.

    Why it matters here · Made architectural depth the default lever, and VGG features are still a standard perceptual loss.

  3. 2014

    Superintelligence

    Nick Bostrom, Future of Humanity Institute

    Formalised the alignment and control problem for systems that exceed human capability.

    Why it matters here · Directly shaped the safety teams, evaluations and policy commitments that frontier labs in this catalog now publish.
