IBM just released a new quantum computer, but it will still take a few years before applications can use its full potential.

See press release here: https://www.engadget.com/2019/01/08/ibm-q-system-one-quantum-computer/

its 20 qubit

Wake me up when they release 3000 qubit QC.

See you in 2050.

there are already 100 qubit boxes, and rumors of 500 qubit at military/goverment facilities in China.

That wakeup call may come sooner than you think

Doubt it, actually it will be delayed like for another more 30 years. Things get messy when the number of qubits increases. Meet my grand son in 2080.

So what about this:

50 Qubit onsale online

D-Wave claims to have 2000 Qubit

Google had 75 qubit 10 months ago

Rigetti has 128 qubit chip

Still think its gonna take several decades?

Guess NSA has one tooo...

D-wave access is costly. Try their Leap account. You get 1 min/month of free QPU time. Commercial access is $2000/hr/month.

I tried their 'dwave' SDK SPI, no solvers were available for the supplied endpoint and my API token. Pretty useless.

Smoke and mirrors if you ask me.

It is not something you can buy on newegg.com and use it.
