They obviously won't.

Please go fuck yourself brainlet.

How do I downvote this post?

Tbh it will only make difficult calculations easier. So i only think that nasa or something like that would benefit from quantum computers

>>8729037
haha, that's funny.

>Relevant to anything but the finance industry

>>8728911
No they won't be able to do it.

more like nsa

> IBM's quantum computer must be cooled to a fraction of a degree away from absolute zero, a temperature colder than outer space, so its innermost niobium and aluminum components aren't perturbed by outside influences.
So, no, you aren't going to be able to buy one of these for porn

The only non meme answer about quantum computing is

The big deal about them is that they are able to bypass a lot of encryption because of how quickly they can generate the key or break it.

they're gonna be pretty rich if they're selling them millions of times faster than anything else

>>8728911
>quantum computers
>millions of times faster
Ugh I hate popsci reporters.

>>8728911
quantum computers are a meme

>>8729118
you're a meme anon

I don't think we can miniaturize cooling equipment enough to make quantum computers viable for home/desktop applications. "Commercial" as in mass-produced, fridge-sized supercomputers, sure, but not for consumers.

>>8729070
decryption is conjecture. there isn't any programming structure to do that right now.
t. worked with DWave

What's D-Wave endgame? Scamming everyone with expensive fridges doesnt seem a long term strategy.

>>8728911
bull, will not happen for another 30++ years give or take.

>>8729183
That was exactly that argument made as to why computers would never be a consumer product, almost word for word.

>>8728911
ofc no, untill they make a base e computers viable

>>8729274
there is no reason to believe (partially due to the current understanding of thermodynamics) cryogenic refrigerators can be miniaturized.
an "induction" by "we were wrong in the past" is not an argument

Is IBM even still relevant?

>>8728911
If it can be used for quantum chemistry simulation, you can bet your ass it will. Faster quantum chemistry means we can discover new drugs and materials faster.
