Shadbolt: $1B in revenue marks the starting point for useful quantum computing
“When you're making a ton of revenue you're probably doing something that, you know, within reason you could call useful and like a billion dollars of revenue would be a nice starting point for a useful machine like this. Yeah, definitely what is not useful is …”

Shadbolt: Useful quantum computing requires roughly one million qubits
“The general consensus is that you need more like a million qubits to do anything commercially impactful with a quantum computer.”

Shadbolt: Most people will never directly interact with a quantum computer
“Quantum computing is the same, right? Like most people will never program a quantum computer. Most people will never directly interact with a quantum computer.”

Assertion Supported
Shadbolt: Quantum codebreaking requires a larger system than commercial utility
“As far as we understand still, despite these new architectural results, algorithmic results, you still need a bigger computer to do code breaking than you do to tackle the commercially useful applications that we talked about earlier.”

Shadbolt: Quantum computers will solve simulations impossible on classical supercomputers
“Our conventional supercomputers suck at predicting the properties of these microscopic things. And that happens to be exactly the set of problems where a quantum computer is perfectly suited and where we will solve problems that can never be solved by any conv…”

Tony Kim: Utility-scale, million-qubit quantum computers will arrive around 2030
“It's very interesting when you look at these long-dated technologies. All roads converge to 2030. It's like quantum computing, utility scale, logically error-corrected, million-qubit quantum computer, twenty-thirty.”
