Like, how powerful is this computer?

Exactly.

And so if we have a reduction in qubits, it means the computer is simply not as powerful, but can do more powerful things.

Right.

If we had the level of hardware.

Now, to my understanding, that is still the unknown thing is whether we can actually get to that level of hardware.

Right now, we have the best machines that we have today are like 1,000 to 1,500 physical qubits.

And that creates 50 logical qubits.

These are all deep quantum scientific stuff.

That's right.

But...

But it's still an unknown if we can get to a meaningful level of logical qubits.

We're at 50.

We need a lot more.

But what this innovation does from this paper is just simply an improvement in the software, an improvement in the algorithm.

That means we don't actually need a whole lot more qubits.

We definitely need way more qubits.

But the amount of qubits that we need is now down because we have a more efficient piece of software.

It's always theory, never practice.

And as I understand it, quantum is still theory, not practice when it comes to qubits.
