Målet med [[Den Andre Kvanterevolusjonen]] er å gi leseren evnen til å skille kvantehype fra virkelighet, i den forstand at man besitter de nødvendige intellektuelle verktøyene. Tatt fra [Scotts Kaku-review](https://scottaaronson.blog/?p=7321): > Personally, I’d say that > 1. Quantum simulation speeding up progress in biochemistry, high-temperature superconductivity, and the like is at least _plausible_—though very far from guaranteed, **since one has to beat the cleverest classical approaches that can be designed for the same problems** (a point that Kaku nowhere grapples with). > 2. The stuff involving optimization, machine learning, and the like **is almost entirely wishful thinking**. > 3. Not once in the book has Kaku even *mentioned* **the intellectual tools** (e.g., looking at actual quantum algorithms like Grover’s algorithm or phase estimation, and their performance on various tasks) that would be needed to distinguish 1 from 2." For å paraphrase [[Shtetl-Optimized]]-headeren: "I tilfelle du ikke får noe annet ut av dette: Nei, kvantedatamaskiner løser ikke vanskelige oppgaver umiddelbart ved å teste alle løsninger parallelt og velge den korrekte." [[Scott Aaronson]] sier [også](https://x.com/dulwichquantum/status/1740842486262849884?s=46): > Billions of dollars are being invested in quantum computing in hopes to accelerate machine learning, optimization, finance, AI. As a quantum algorithms person, honesty compels me to report that the situation is much, much iffier.
