summary
This article discusses the progress and potential of quantum computing in the business world. It highlights the views of a startup called Rigetti, which specializes in building quantum computers. According to Rigetti, quantum computing is almost ready for practical applications in various industries. The article explains that while traditional computers use bits to store and process information, quantum computers use quantum bits or qubits, which offer exponentially greater computing power. It also mentions some of the challenges that need to be overcome, such as instability of qubits and error correction. Despite these challenges, the article suggests that quantum computing has reached a point where it can be considered for certain business applications, such as optimization problems and drug development.
