Dont they report an advantage based on simulating quantum effects every other year? I was promissed a quick way to decrypt my old harddrives decades ago, can we have that at some point before the sun burns out?
The funny thing is we already have PQC so even if quantum computing works, it will be immediately irrelevant.
At least for breaking crypto, which seems to be its headline feature. Maybe there are other useful things it can do?
Are your old hard drives encrypted using asymmetric cryptography? If not, I'm not sure who made you that promise.
