I am not against any of the tech i listed, i think they all are neat and quite interesting to study and use. you are probably not been around the forums to realise why i put it there, QC discussion these days are leaning towards the it’s a grift/ it will never be viable territory. This is mostly in large part due to M$ and their claims. there is also some subtle fear mongering going on with the recent push towards quantam resistant encryption standards. So i am not calling QC a grift, I am calling out that whenever it becomes viable for the companies that are researching it to rent their computers to consumers, people will start calling it the next grift.

Quantum computers are more secure but could also be used to break that security. That’s why the major customers of quantum computers are banks and governments. It is not really for wide mass consumption. Although I heard quantum chips are better and more environmentally friendly but i am not a tech guy so i could be wrong on that or the quantum chip itself.

I mean it’s definitely something that companies are trying to sell. Even if it’s just marketing BS right now, they’re using this to sell their LLM products. news.microsoft.com/…/majorana-2-microsoft-discove…

Quantum computers are a thing, and they’re very useful for certain things… But business idiots in the tech world do be slapping the word “quantum” on stuff. It’s not a huge thing at the moment, but it’s probably gonna be the next insufferable hype cycle after they get tired of branding random shit as “AI enabled” because they stapled a chat bot on to it. Like, give it a few years, someone will be trying to tell you that a quantum computer will somehow make a vacuum robot able to do your laundry because “something something better path finding”
