Assertion Not checkable as stated
Trudeau: Quantum states encode complex information into single bits
“What quantum states allow for is much more complex information to be encoded into a single bit. Regular computer bit is either a one or a zero, on or off. A quantum state can be much more complex than that because, as we know things can be both particle and wa…”

Quantum computers will solve optimization problems thousands of times faster
“For example, the thousands of years that it might take current computers to solve a certain optimization problem could be done very quickly.”

Corporate quantum computing research surpassed academic work around 2018
“The tipping point occurred late last year when the work being done by corporate entities, which have a profit motive, became more important than the work that was being done by academia.”

China made quantum computing its top national priority with unlimited budget
“As far as the Chinese were concerned, quantum computing is their number one priority. It's not water. It's not population controlled. It's not food. It is quantum computing. There is no budget. Which means there's no limit to the budget. It means not that ther…”

Prediction Not checkable as stated
Quantum computing will impact society more than the Industrial Revolution
“If the promise that Feynman held forth in the early eighties is even remotely true, then the impact of quantum computing on our lives as we sit around this table will be greater, for example, than that That our forefathers during the industrial revolution had …”

Precision engineering enables physical quantum computing beyond academic theory
“The reason why it's no longer academic is that the advances in engineering, the same reason why we have the Large Hadron Collider, the same reason we have well, there's so many advances in engineering, of course, now, because the, I think the gate fidelity of …”

Cordova: Quantum computing's hard science is solved; the remaining challenge is engineering
“The hard science problems have been solved, but how do you build a superconducting qubit, and how do you Send it a radio frequency data to program it. The hard part now is is going through all the different ways that these things can be hooked together to buil…”
