One involves boring old superconducting qubits. AFAIK, it assumes a significant improvement in noise performance to work. So the fact that it uses less qubits isn't very interesting in the absence of increased noise performance. Impossible is still impossible.<br><br>The other one involves something called neutral atoms. This technology has better noise performance. But it is a different technology. It appears that we don't know how to run a relevant algorithm on it at this time in a useful way. The paper refers to "engineering challenges". So I think this is the one to pay attention to in the next few months. We need to wait for comments from knowledgeable critics.<br><br>Bruce<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Gnupg-users mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:Gnupg-users@gnupg.org" href="mailto:Gnupg-users@gnupg.org">Gnupg-users@gnupg.org</a><br><a href="https://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users" target="_blank">https://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users</a><br><blockquote></blockquote></blockquote>
