Adam Back refutes claims on quantum computing parallels
@adam3us: Adam Back refutes claims
Adam Back, CEO of Blockstream, has challenged assertions made about the parallels between current quantum research and hypothetical future applications in semiconductor technology. His remarks were in response to a conversation with venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya.
In his tweet, Back criticized the comparison of quantum R&D to future 10 billion transistor 3nm chips as unrealistic, drawing an analogy between current quantum developments and an earlier stage of technology comparable to 'a table sized tray of cathode ray tubes'.
This statement highlights the ongoing discourse regarding the speculative nature of future computing technologies and their anticipated impacts, particularly in the realm of cryptocurrencies where quantum computing is often discussed for its potential to disrupt cryptographic protocols.
