Quantum computers are advancing much faster than scientists expected
by Tristan Greene| Cointelegraph
Quantum computing is one of those “just around the corner” technologies that has the scientific community split. Tech outfits such as Google and IBM have gone full throttle with both R&D and marketing as if they’re already here while many independent researchers have claimed quantum computers will never work.
Most people working in the field, however, believe that quantum computers will be able to solve problems that classical computers can’t within the next 10 years.
This is according to a recent survey of 927 people with associations to the field of quantum computing (researchers, executives, press, enthusiasts, etc.) conducted by QuEra. Of those surveyed, 74.9% “expect quantum to be a superior alternative to classical computing for certain workloads” within the next 10 years.

Erosion, tectonic uplift, and a human-built dam have all helped shape the Upper Lake Powell area in Utah.
This astronaut photograph was acquired on July 28, 2023, with a Nikon D5 digital camera using a focal length of 1,150 millimeters. It is provided by the ISS Crew Earth Observations Facility and the Earth Science and Remote Sensing Unit, Johnson Space Center. The image has been cropped and enhanced to improve contrast, and lens artifacts have been removed. The International Space Station Program supports the laboratory as part of the International Space Station National Lab to help astronauts take pictures of Earth that will be of the greatest value to scientists and the public, and to make those images freely available on the Internet. Additional images taken by astronauts and cosmonauts can be viewed at the NASA/JSC Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth.
