It was taken over by career academics, pr management and government agents. It's a big money blackhole. No one is working on an actual quantum computer. They don't even know what they are doing.
>B b but quantums are real ... You are a quantum denier!
I repeat: No one is working on an actual quantum computer.
>B b but why would they spend so much money on a scam?
Yeah, like big scams didn't exist in our history before.
>B b but microsoft has a qc. You can access it online.
What you can access online is a really expensive random number generator.
>B b but research takes time and money.
Yeah its been 30 years now and hundreds of billions of dollars and still nothing. How do you tell if its a really long research or just a scam to steal taxpayer money and hype up share prices?

quantum computing is a flop because it's theoretical nonsenses from the start. the nanometer world isn't random, it just appears random because we don't have enough global information of the universe to compute the next state correctly.
there isn't a reason why locality should be a fundamental rule, it's just tranny physicists put that shit to the equations otherwise they won't be able to solve the math

Because it lack raw computing power and its only upside was like a handful of crypto-breaking algorithms being able to exploit the way it handle information to take massive shorcuts.
They are nowhere near close to give it enough raw power that those "cheat code" algos are actually faster than what regular computers can do.
... and the coup-de-grace is that cryptographyfags started working on quantum-computing-proof method as soon as they heard about it, and they are progressing much faster - which mean the entire endeavor is dead on arrival.

I dont know but I got scammed.
Was a EECS major, switched to Physics major because I liked my QP and QC classes, I used to do cool shit with embedded systems, signal processing, some machine learning. Could have combined all of that to become a good roboticist.
I left for Physics because le quantum and I didn't know any better, 2 years in, about to graduate soon and I realize it's all so fucking obscure and meaningless.
Researchers will siphon taxpayers money to simulate a many-body systems, then 3 weeks later some HPC guys come out to say "hmmm actually we managed to do this classically".
Turns out most of the hard QC problems can be solved classically through clever statistical methods, and quantum cryptography is a meme because we already have quantum-proof encryption.
I regret following this path.
I just hope we're at a similar stage AI was a couple of decades ago, when nobody believed in it except academics, and the researchers then suddenly became super valuable and got offered jobs with crazy high TC as big techs where desperate to join the race.

I already explained this in another thread.
1. They arbitrarily limited quantum computing to the manipulation of binary observables. Choosing the qubit as a fundamental unit of computation was a mistake. The quantum world has a rich landscape of continuous observables yielding the potential for real variable computing, i.e. a candidate for hyperturing computation.
2. They disregard the role of consciousness in the measurement process. To them measurement is merely a technical building block at the end of their petty algorithms. Unlocking the power of consciousness and free will would revolutionize computing.

Quantum Computers are not a flop but I understand why a lot of people think they are. Quantum computing isn't a Computer Science problem right now or really even a physics problem. It's an engineering one. We have quantum computers that are functional and have performed basic computation. However, in order to do the quantum stuff we want it too, we need way stronger super computers. Currently, the largest super computer has a little over 1000 physical qubits. However, it take roughly 1024 physical qubits to equal one logical qubit. And, the most popular quantum computing algorithm (Shor's algorithm) requires 2050 qubits to perform the algorithm on a 1024-bit number. So, we will need 2^21 physical qubits. So, we have less than 1% of the necessary qubits necessary. At this point, all the math checks out. Engineers just need to come up with clever ways to scale the size of quantum computers.

unfortunately... at its core, AI is still roughly in the state it was just before the AI winter. nothing fundamentally has changed architecture-wise, people are still just using multilayer perceptrons. the only real differences are 1) the compute available is finally enough for larger multilayer perceptrons and 2) a particular problem (seq2seq) that has a lot of applications when generalized was shown to be trainable on multilayer perceptrons by using highly parallelized multilayer perceptrons (transformers), which made training all these models feasible with existing compute.
nobody has solutions for continuous (even segmented) learning, an actual model for emulating abstraction (which is the bare minimum for emulating 'understanding'), enough compute to run recurrent units at nearly the same scale as newer multilayer perceptrons (and you absolutely need recurrence of some sort to allow an AI to be 'aware' of anything), or a way to keep the gimmicky external "memory" that context windows represent from exploding compute requirements over time even for multilayer perceptrons (you literally feed as much of the whole interaction history as you can back in as a prompt under the hood; the longer the input, the greater the compute).
now, a lot of tasks can be automated with the limited, purely short-term memory allowed by a context window, but those tasks are all quite narrow in scope (i.e. the necessary memory actually fits in a context window). this means any such task would always be more efficiently automated by simpler, less generalized systems that don't require models of nearly the same scale as something like an LLM.
the promise of generalized task automation across a wide scope of tasks with giant multilayer perceptrons would be, even if it was true, hilariously inefficient from an energy/compute standpoint, but it is fundamentally a marketing lie. scale doesn't change architecture and doesn't do magic.

No. I'm threatened by a system that has discarded merit as the measure of success and now rewards people simply having the correct gender.

>Why was quantum computing a flop?
The general nature of how it works itself is the main reason why it's a "flop". It's too hyper specialized and thus can't function using normal "commercial" transistors in everyday computers due to quantum tunneling. So there's no immediate utility for it in the commercial sector anywhere.
Taking it further most CEOs and shareholders along with the general population doesn't even understand how the average transistor in a works in a semiconductor in relation to electrons moving through it. So what do you think is going to happen if you try to explain to them that Quantum Computers are designed in a way to resolve electrons behaving differently in terms of movement when dealing with smaller scale ecosystems?

Nobody's making anything quantum for the consumer market other than the chinese

Because you're impatient. It's the same shit as people saying fusion will never happen or AI will never happen.

It faces a similar problem to analog computing. It can't be used for general purposes.
It will probably have commercial applications (as analog computing still does), but you're probably never gonna be playing Minecraft on a quantum computer.
