the whole "industry" is a fabrication.

you use pseudoscientific aesthetics to steal money from taxpayers and the stock market. Non of this will ever produce real economic value.

> That doesn't mean their work was worthless but like everything, things progress.

what an obscene claim. Some things are not progress they are just fraud. You are peddling modern day alchemy. That "one day" it would affect the price of gold never came.

Your stuff is ivory tower theoretical research. You shouldn't be allowed to stand here and make "predictions" that one day you will make gold from lead.

in the next few years people like you will not be allowed to make your fraudulent claims without pushback. Credibility for this "industry" is only going down as you are unable to deliver.

Quantum and Photonic computing functionally works. You can go to many labs and see it in action producing results. As I stated in my original post I think it's a decade plus to get to where it states but that doesn't mean everything is fraud. Because you can't recoqnise that it is functioning and showing progress that doesn't mean it isn't.

Your skepticism is valid to some extent with some implementations but your background knowledge doesn't support your theory and clearly hasn't seen the results first hand (which is understandable of course unless you work in research in that field).

I am very curious why your point of view is expressed in this manner. It feels as if you were in a field that is now recieving less funding due to QC and PC.

It feels as if you are collating all work with any mention of quantum as one which it isn't. Also it feels as if you are assuming quantum computing is exclusively focused on brute force algorithm cryptography cracking which again it isn't. Quantum computing is exclusively any form of computing that utilizes quantum theory to manipulate data. That's not automatically "better" just more effective for certain circumstances.

There are already real world examples of quantum computing methods utilising photons that can perform security jobs that classical computing simply couldn't do especially in relation to photon pairs.

Not snake oil, just engineering and physics.
