Deeper cuts could be on the way. As soon as this week, the #Trump admin is expected to propose sharp reductions in discretionary spending, including on #research & #development, as part of the annual budget process.
Economists have warned that such cuts could undermine American competitiveness in areas like #vaccine development, #AI & #QuantumComputing, & could slow #growth in #income & #productivity in the long term.

My #Introduction.
A #programmer by day and a programmer by night.
I probably spend more time on my computer than doing anything else.
I have interests in #machinelearning and #quantumcomputing.
I also enjoy #ttrpg, #manga, #electronics and just #reading.
The key to 'cat qubits' 160-times more reliable lies in 'squeezing' them, scientists discover
Great call to action by Robbie King on finding more useful quantum algorithms.
Billions of euros have been spent on research for advancing the development of quantum computers, but what are they useful for?
As the post-quantum transition progresses, the main incentive for quantum computers is going away.
Robbie claims "The bar for meaningful progress is lower than it might seem, and even incremental advances are valuable.”

I've heard the claim that #QuantumComputing will be the next #fad in #tech once the #AIBubble bursts completely. The thing about that is that quantum computers seem to actually have broad potential for improvement of how we use computers. So-called "AI" has a very narrow scope of actual usefulness, but billionaires already wanted an excuse to cut the lower rungs off the ladder via automation, so they didn't care how many cracks they left in the façade trying to ram a square peg into a round hole
The Quantum Apocalypse Is Coming. Be Very Afraid
What happens when quantum computers can finally crack encryption and break into the world’s best-kept secrets? It’s called Q-Day—the worst holiday maybe ever.

So JPMorgan needed a quantum computer to generate truly random numbers? And here I thought their fee structure already had that covered! 
Jokes aside, they've actually achieved something impressive: mathematically certified random numbers using quantum computing. Nature-published breakthrough!

A nice primer around what quantum computing's impact will be to the world & what makes Microsoft's Majorana 1 quantum processor unique:
Up to 100x more efficient w/ built-in error protection on physical qubits without using software-based error correction
Potentially 1000x more powerful with extreme processing density capable of having 1 million qubits on a single chip

#nisqusdead #Microsoft #QuantumComputing
Microsoft has several fully operational Majorana 1 quantum processors, running single topological qubits for measurement & testing components of the processor.
And what we show in public is not a 'rendering' or a mock up: The Majorana 1 is a REAL & AUTHENTIC chip & we are displaying it with all components included.

More incremental improvement in #quantumcomputing. (And yes, cat qubits are named after Schrodinger's cat.) https://physicsworld.com/a/cat-qubits-open-a-faster-track-to-fault-tolerant-quantum-computing/
@LaNaehForaday @davidsirota In the somewhat near future #quantumcomputing will solve the problem. The #quantumcomputer will be able to crack 'secret' information in basically no time. That will cause some serious stress for the crypto currency guys.
