>>14292306>is it the futureYes, we are decades away from useful full-scale QCs.
>will it be viableAll signs point to yes but only for *incredibly* niche problems. Like, not just scientific/industrial problems but only very specific types of scientific problems. Like all technology, it's just a tool to be used where appropriate.
>thoughtsIt's an interesting field to work in. But there's also plenty of bunk research being done, wasting grant/investor money (like any research field). Almost every claim about QCs comes with about 50 asterisks, and if someone isn't disclosing that fact then they're trying to sell you by overhyping it.
