Quantum Computing: Hype vs. Reality

Enrique Dans's Medium article expresses skepticism about the near-term prospects of quantum computing, citing Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's prediction of a 15–30 year timeline for practical applications. Dans argues that current quantum systems are severely limited, and that much of the hype surrounding the technology is driven by companies seeking funding or inflated valuations. He highlights the inherent complexities of quantum mechanics and the lack of understanding even among experts, suggesting a significant gap between current capabilities and ambitious predictions. The article concludes with a call for reassessing expectations and revisiting the topic in two decades.
