The developments in quantum computing know-how have been growing quickly over the previous couple of years. Once I first joined the sphere in 2018, not many individuals have been conscious of the sensible aspect of the sphere or sought it out as a lot, maybe as a result of just a few knew what quantum computer systems have been or as a result of we didn’t have quantum computer systems on the time. All that has modified since then.
Increasingly more individuals have turn into within the discipline, from academia to trade and even among the public. So, once I was sitting to consider my first article of 2025, the present standing of quantum computing appeared like a good suggestion.
Not simply due to how briskly the quantum discipline has come but additionally as a result of this yr, the a hundredth yr because the begin of the event of quantum mechanics, the United Nations has introduced 2025 because the international year of quantum science and technology.
So, what higher time to debate the sphere for individuals who are interested in the place we at the moment are as a discipline?
What are quantum computer systems? A really quick intro
However first, for anybody new to the sphere, allow us to briefly deal with what quantum computing is and why anybody ought to care about it.
