What Jamie wrote
It is certainly a "moon shot" for Google to be working on this. IBM is the one that is usually making noise about quantum computing. Cool milestone…
Second, Willow performed a standard benchmark computation in under five minutes that would take one of today’s fastest supercomputers 10 septillion (that is, 10^25) years — a number that vastly exceeds the age of the Universe.
Quantum, AI, Crypto — these are all long bets that I suspect we will see come to fruition over the next couple decades. We are already well down the way with AI and Crypto isn't far behind.
