I am sceptic for quantum computers tech. It Looks like everybody create them on many levels qubits but still nobody understand this fenomena and how they works! Is like Master Voice story by Stanislaw Lem. Still these "computers" are useless and is chance that this is death end way. All predictions for quantum tech are theoretical.🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤓

Yes, true. Despite lots of hype around QC, they don't make the majority of hard (NP-complete or harder) much easier, with a theoretical improvement, but almost certainly still losing really badly against practical implementations of classical algorithms for almost all practical problems. Interesting basic research for some physicists, for sure, but no real world killer applications in sight.
