Quantum Computer: una possibile rivoluzione | Francesco Anna Mele & Antonio Anna Mele | TEDxPolicoro
I gemelli ci conducono in un viaggio ai confini con l’impossibile, là dove l’evoluzione tecnologica spinge oltre i limiti. La tecnologia ha già trasformato ciò che un tempo sembrava irraggiungibile.
Eppure ci sono ancora sfide cruciali per l’umanità che i computer e l’intelligenza artificiale attuali non riescono a superare, o meglio, potrebbero farlo, ma impiegherebbero tempi inimmaginabili.
Per questo i fisici hanno inventato una nuova macchina: il computer quantistico.
Esso sfrutta le regole della meccanica quantistica per accelerare i calcoli, proprietà che per un essere umano appaiono così controintuitive da sembrare impossibili. Francesco Anna Mele è nato il 22 agosto 1997 ad Acquaviva delle Fonti (BA) e ha vissuto a Policoro (MT) fino al 2016. La passione per la Fisica nasce durante l’ultimo anno del liceo, grazie ai problemi “puzzling” proposti alle Olimpiadi Italiane della Fisica, in cui ottiene una medaglia di bronzo nella fase nazionale.Nel 2016 si iscrive al corso di Laurea Triennale in Fisica presso l’Università di Catania e vince l’ammissione alla Scuola Superiore di Catania. L’anno successivo si trasferisce all’Università di Pisa, dove consegue la laurea nel 2019. Nello stesso anno inizia la Laurea Magistrale in Fisica Teorica all’Università di Pisa e vince l’ammissione alla Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa come studente ordinario in Fisica.Nel 2021 ottiene la laurea magistrale e il diploma di licenza della Scuola Normale, e inizia il Dottorato in Fisica presso la stessa istituzione. Durante il dottorato, alterna periodi di ricerca a Pisa con soggiorni internazionali in diverse città: nel 2023 a Berlino, nel 2024 ad Amsterdam e nel 2025 a Los Angeles.La sua ricerca si concentra sull’informazione quantistica, ed ha un obiettivo chiaro: sfruttare la fisica quantistica per potenziare ed innovare la tecnologia odierna.Antonio Anna Mele è nato il 22 Agosto 1997 ad Acquaviva delle Fonti (BA) e ha vissuto a Policoro fino al 2016. Dopo la laurea in Fisica a Pisa e un doppio master tra l’Università di Trento e la SISSA di Trieste, è approdato a Berlino per il dottorato.Durante il suo percorso ha lavorato anche al Los Alamos National Laboratory, negli Stati Uniti, ed ha presentato le sue ricerche in numerose conferenze internazionali. È ricercatore in informatica quantistica alla Freie Universität di Berlino. Si occupa dello sviluppo di algoritmi quantistici, con un focus su Machine Learning e Tomografia: progetta algoritmi per ricostruire, apprendere e caratterizzare sistemi quantistici a partire da ciò che si può misurare in laboratorio.Il suo obiettivo è esplorare e spingere al limite le potenzialità reali dei computer quantistici.

- 13:14Discipline Algorithms to Control Your Focus | Ali Flifli | TEDxUniversity Hassan II of CasablancaIn this talk, Ali Flifli aimed to build a cognitive bridge between the past and the present — between the fast algorithms of Artificial Intelligence and the timeless spiritual “stations” of self-purification.His reflection was inspired by the writings of Imam Abu Hamid Al-Ghazali, who, more than nine centuries ago, outlined profound steps for purifying and disciplining the self. He revisited his ideas through a contemporary lens — one that helps us face the overwhelming flood of digital distractions that define our modern world.Through this approach, he sought to highlight the integration between Islamic sciences and human sciences, showing how the wisdom of our scientific heritage can offer practical tools to strengthen focus and self-discipline in an age ruled by fast algorithms. Ali Flifli is a researcher based at Hassan II University of Casablanca. Currently pursuing a PhD in Islamic Studies, he combines rigorous academic research with active public engagement, bridging the gap between scholarly inquiry and community outreach.

- 8:45Formula para cambiar la realidad | Alejandra Piñeros Flye | TEDxPreludio YouthUna historia de transformación personal donde el baloncesto se convierte en el puente para superar el bullying, la pandemia y los desafíos de salud. Esta charla revela cómo el esfuerzo disciplinado en el deporte abrió el camino hacia la robótica y grandes logros académicos, demostrando que la fórmula "confía + esfuérzate + persiste" puede cambiar una vida. Alejandra Piñeros, tiene 15 años, estudiante, Speaker TEDxPreludioYouth, miembro activa en la academia Rozo producciones . Le encanta el teatro musical y leer. Se preocupa por no ser única y especial. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
- 5:35Building Robots, Teams, and Futures | Eliades Xavier Zielinski-Gutierrez | TEDxColegio Maya YouthRobots and weather balloons aren’t just projects; rather, they’re proof that students can dream big and build bigger. Eliades shares how teamwork, creativity, and real-world problem-solving are shaping the future of science and discovery at school. His talk is a call to innovate, collaborate, and launch ideas into the world (and space). Eliades is a 10th-grade student at Colegio Maya who is passionate about robotics, engineering, and track and field. He is an active member of the robotics team, the weather balloon project, and the track team. Eliades enjoys exploring new places and looks forward to finishing his school year at Colegio Maya with dedication and growth.

- 15:11You Don't Get What You Deserve, You Get What You Ask For | Pratham Jindal | TEDxPURC LudhianaThrough humour, honesty, and hard-earned lessons, Pratham Jindal reveals the psychology behind why most people never ask for what they want — and how breaking through the Wall (fear), the Fog (assumption), and the Mirror (ego) can unlock life-changing opportunities.This talk isn’t just about business. It’s about courage, communication, and confidence — and how a single question can open doors you never thought possible. Without investors, family wealth, or venture capital, Pratham Jindal scaled Praper Media into a 75+ employee company. His experience in bootstrapping a business makes him a role model for self-made entrepreneurs. His story isn’t just about success—it’s about exponential growth. In just a few years, he scaled from earning INR 7,000 per month to running an 8-figure agency, proving the power of persistence and smart execution. Coming from Goniana, Punjab—a place with limited opportunities—he overcame infrastructure challenges, including poor internet, and no industry exposure, to build an international company. His story challenges societal norms and inspires young minds to think beyond the conventional.
