Assertion Supported
Cordova: Near-term quantum computers run in 100-microsecond bursts
“Unlike classical computers, which you can kind of run for days and weeks, Or in perhaps years at a time, quantum computers kind of run in bursts of a hundred microseconds.”

Prediction Not checkable as stated
Pandey: Quantum computers will suddenly surpass classical computing at a specific threshold
“What will happen is a quantum computer at first will seem like it won't be all that useful. It will be below the number of qubits that you need. Maybe you need a hundred qubits to solve the problem and the existing machine only has 64. And so a classical compu…”
