Quantum computing

Quantum computing has massive long-term potential to transform society, by enabling new types of computations, but is also a field full of myths and misconceptions. In particular, quantum computers cannot just do the same calculations as today’s computers only faster/better/cheaper. Nor do they work by “trying all solutions at once”. And they certainly don’t prove that they are leveraging the computational power across multiple universes, no matter what headlines you might see.
