Insight
Preskill: Quantum speedup requires engineering interference to cancel incorrect answers
“The art of a quantum algorithm is to make sure that the wrong answers interfere and cancel one another out, so the right answer is enhanced. And that's not automatic. It requires that the quantum algorithm be designed in just the right way.”

Preskill: Current quantum computers are too small for proposed algorithms
“We have algorithms that have been proposed, but, which we can't really run currently, because our quantum computers aren't big enough, on the scale that's needed to solve problems really, people really care about.”

Benjamin: First useful quantum algorithms in the coming year will skip error correction
“Now, for the first quantum algorithms that we made, you know, the first serious ones that might do something useful, that perhaps we'll see in the coming year, ah, that's probably going to be the approach.”
