@poleguy @sophieschmieg @cstross ding ding ding! 'Quantum computing' is full of the same kind of lunacy as LLMs; "it's inevitable, it's the future, ignore hitting obvious dead-ends." I would say that given the current landscape, effective communication by quantum teleportation over long distances is more likely to happen first despite the LLM-fanboy VCs shoveling money as fast as they possibly can.

@poleguy @sophieschmieg @cstross and yes, quantum teleportation is absolutely real, empirically proven, and Urbana-Champaign achieved a *94%* fidelity with indium-gallium-phosphide last year. Meaning we are getting very close to "it's a scale manufacturing problem."
