      Yeah no doubt. It can be pitched as solving all the world’s problems immediately, and fear mongered as “breaking all security instantly”. There’s no defined end product yet, so the goalposts can move.

      Like AI, it can be a test of the debt market more than of tech

        Of course nothing is perfect, but we’re pretty confident that the existence of quantum computers won’t break the internet.
