Comment on Why Haven’t Quantum Computers Factored 21 Yet?
astropenguin5@lemmy.world 2 days agoI don’t think quantum computing is a bubble at all, at least not yet. It’s still firmly in the stage of being explored and understood in a healthy way. I could see it having the possibility of being a bubble, but it would take significant advances in making it more available.

That’s exactly where LLMs/"AI” were about 10 years ago. My point is that after the AI bubble pops, the same idiot techbros have probably already identified new things to latch onto and pump up into a bubble, they’re probably already seeding the ground with it. I can almost guarantee quantum computing will be one of their next “disruptors” that they disrupt ignorant investor’s bank accounts with.
AI is just the currently active grift of these con artists. The grift goes on, and on, and on, it never stops. Quantum computing will have its day. It’s not there yet, but someday it will be.

If you can make a bubble out of crypto and sub-prime mortgages, quantum computing is a doddle, though I’d bet it comes after compute as a service using all those datacentres (some of which will even get built).
Problem is the AI burst is very likely to take out the US economy (and do bad things to the rest of the world), the home of these scams. But I’m sure some shareholder value was ‘created’.
