Wang: Quantum computing will be really impactful in 5 to 10 years
“I think quantum computing is on kind of like the way AI was back in 2018. It's on a few scaling laws where you can definitely sort of squint and see that, you know, in five to 10 years, this is going to be A really, really impactful technology.”

Costica: Hackers steal encrypted data now to decrypt with future quantum computing
“I think the one thing that has changed around quantum computing is a sort of, maybe it is closer than we think, and then the threat actors are, you know, stealing data now, so they will be able to decrypt it later once they, you know, figure it out.”
