But it seems more like AI scaling.
which is you just throw more hardware at it.
You just scale it up than it does fusion.
It's almost like an analog is in the 1960s.
Transistors worked.
They were discovered.
The question at that time was, could we pack millions on one chip?
And that was the engineering problem.
That's similar to what the engineering problem is now.
So their conclusion, Google's conclusion, we urge all vulnerable cryptocurrency communities, which is all of us, to join the migration to post-quantum cryptography without delay.
Didn't mention, but the other paper, the Oratomic paper, it's actually...
They have a different architecture and a different style attack.
There's a fast attack, which Google was talking about, and a slower attack that would take days to go attack a key.
But with the slower attack in their message, in their method, they improved Shor's algorithm by 50x.
So in this configuration, it would only take 10,000 reconfigurable atomic qubits to attack.
So there's multiple attack vectors, and at some level, the atomic qubits
Yeah.
And the oratoric paper was even more concerning.
So flashing red lights, you'd think.
Yeah.
