Quantum computers use the properties of quantum physics to store data and perform computations. There are many technologies with the potential to build their foundational quantum bits (qubits). However, no company is close to delivering the enmeshed systems of high-fidelity qubits needed to usher in the quantum era. The fiendishly difficult engineering problems, excess of hype, and pre-revenue phase for many quantum companies mean a protracted quantum winter is in prospect. It may be over a decade before quantum computing crosses the chasm into the commercial mainstream.
The next few years will see a progression of noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices and the development of modular systems, each generation incrementally more powerful and less fragile. They will provide some quantum edge in optimization applications and begin operating in hybrid systems. Meanwhile, advances in classical supercomputing will yield achievements previously thought to require quantum computers.
Key Highlights
Governments and enterprises suffer from a fear of missing out amid a rising tide of techno-nationalism and protectionism. If beaten to the quantum punch, they will fail to grasp the geopolitical and commercial advantages. In 2023, post-quantum cryptography standards will be implemented to hedge against the threat of data encryption breaching quantum computers.The next few years will see a progression of noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices and the development of modular systems, each generation incrementally more powerful and less fragile.
