If Skynet is gonna happen, it will probably be on one of those.

Or Skynet will be so clever, it realizes there nothing to do in this pathetic world and erases itself due to depression.
And clueless scientists trying to find a "bug" that caused "system failure".

But I thort the whole point of a quantum computer was that the electrons can be in many states at one time not just 1 of 2?

Quantum computing is based on two theories, super position and entanglement, with that being said many questions arises, how do you manage error correction on hardware level, what language is most suitable for handling qubits, Microsoft was keen to present an SDK for there Q# development kit but how is it going to play with the new quantum chip architecture is beyond me o_O
and the main question is how dose a quantum computer compare to our existing computers in real time performance?! if anyone knows the answer would you please be kind enough to let us binary 64 bit users know 🙄

I find it interesting that todays computers are basically designing their own demise with quantium computers, but i find it even more interesting that todays computers CAN actually help bring about quantium computers, it's must be like having a Neandertal man working on Einstiens theory of general relativity. lol

I'll believe it when I see it--and maybe not even then. "Quantum computing" is a miraculous device for raising money from gullible venture capitalists who have swallowed the hype, and that is its highest and best use today. It would seem to literally be the mathematical equivalent of counting the number of angels that can safely fit on the head of a pin. Bah, humbug....On, off, maybe--sure thing /s! "It holds out a promise of truly revolutionary and mindboggling results, such as how to calculate vast sums without actually doing any calculations! So keep that money coming in!" Ever notice how descriptions for theoretical research possibilities are always couched in miraculous terms? Of course, because who would hand them money otherwise?

Back in time, someone somehow created a "transistor" to process data, it took many many years until it became developed enough to help create a more sofisticated transistor and so it kept going on until today.
My guess is that it will be the same with qBits. When the first really usefull processor arrives, it will help create another one more sofisticated and in no time we will be way beyond the processor power we currently have.
