While the CEO and his cronies are blowing hot air into the bubble, the employees would be tasked with unrealistic signing targets to bring in the actual quantum business and then put on PIP and let go.

We've been "5 years away" from having quantum computers since the field emerged in the mid 1990s. 30 years from now, we'll still be "5 years away".

@b1 Quantum Computer Customers ? Why, IBM CIO of course. When you have Matt the Brat and Kavanaugh the Unskilled (Under skilled ??), you know that you need Quantum computers to see the future and save the day for IBM.

After all, IBM has to get a taste of it's own dog cr-ppy food and enjoy it. But it's not going to make money on this one either. LOL.

@b1 IBM said "...we will have thousands of Quantum computers by 2025..." but have this => https://www.ibm.com/quantum/ibm-quantum-network

Typical IBM incompetent over promising and under delivering.

This is an AI summary of how Quantum use cases might happen. Security is the 1 everyone brings up since most people do not REALLY understand Quantum. IBM has been saying for 5 years that people are stealing and hacking data and sitting on it until Quantum comes and then they will use Quantum systems to break every single security and password protections we have today in seconds or minutes.

Quantum computers harness the principles of quantum mechanics to evaluate vast numbers of possibilities simultaneously. This allows them to solve highly complex mathematical and physical problems—ranging from molecular modeling to massive global logistics—exponentially faster than classical supercomputers.

Dr-g Discovery and Development: By accurately simulating molecular interactions and biological systems at the atomic level, quantum computers drastically accelerate the design of new life-saving pharmaceuticals.

Financial Modeling and Risk Analysis: Quantum algorithms are used to optimize investment portfolios, perform high-speed Monte Carlo simulations for risk assessment, and detect complex patterns of financial fraud.

Logistics and Route Optimization: They solve complex mathematical problems to find the most efficient routes and schedules for massive global supply chains, shipping fleets, and public transportation networks.

Cybersecurity and Cryptography: Quantum mechanics enables the development of unbreakable, "quantum-safe" encryption, while also posing a threat to traditional RSA cryptographic systems currently used to secure data.

Advanced Materials Science: By simulating the quantum properties of atoms, researchers can design new, highly durable, and lightweight materials for aerospace, as well as discover advanced superconductors.

Next-Generation Batteries: They simulate chemical reactions to discover new molecular compounds for high-capacity, safer, and faster-charging batteries to support electric vehicles and grid storage.

Quantum Machine Learning: Quantum processors can process massive datasets and recognize patterns much faster than classical AI, significantly improving the accuracy of artificial intelligence and machine learning models.

Weather Forecasting and Climate Modeling: Quantum computing can simulate complex atmospheric physics and fluid dynamics to produce highly accurate, long-term weather predictions and climate change models.

Energy Optimization and Solar Capture: By understanding mechanisms like photosynthesis at a molecular level, quantum computing can help design more efficient solar panels and optimize smart grid energy distribution.

Aerospace Fluid Dynamics: Quantum systems process complex aerodynamic and fluid dynamic simulations, allowing engineers to design more aerodynamic aircraft, spacecraft, and highly efficient propulsion systems.
