 We have a reasonable understanding of the concept of classical computing, but the implications of quantum physics for computing and information may determine the philosophical research agenda for decades to come if not longer. Still it is already clear that the research has repercussions for traditional philosophical positions: the Laplacian view (Laplace 1814 [1902]) that the universe is essentially deterministic seems to be falsified by empirical observations. Quantum random generators are commercially available (see Wikipedia entry on Hardware random number generator  [OIR])  and quantum fluctuations do affect neurological, biological and physical processes at a macroscopic scale (Albrecht &amp; Phillips 2014). Our universe is effectively a process that generates information permanently. Classical deterministic computing seems to be too weak a concept to understand its structure.
