I don't know how old you are, but I'm afraid in the 21st century you definitely won't wait for this, especially with that gloomy time into which the whole civilization is rapidly flying into.

It remind me the first days of the CPU where a room size computer could host several hundreds of bulbs that act like a transistors. Two decades later we had millions of them in a small size pc and eventually we have billions of them in our palm. Can't wait to have billions of qbits cramped to the size of a fingernail.

This is a low noise qubit rather than the semiconductor room-temp variety, so it should be wonderful at calculating a useful sort of unit cell, fast. Hopefully Bosch can invent a thing or two with this much state/gate and still have overhead for people at uni.

For this thing to do something really useful in practical problems, it needs 1000 times more qubits at least, taking into account error control. So far, these are laboratory experiments and, for the most part, the development of budgets. Approximately as with the "autopilot" in a car, where more than $ 100 billion was swelled (someone lived very well and lives off this), but there is essentially nothing in the end, and this understanding has already begun to reach venture investors ...
