Did anyone notice that a quantum algorithms book dropped this year?
doi.org/10.1017/9781...
It's based on this paper:
arxiv.org/abs/2310.03011

...though this part of the truth is not what hurts.

Well, I'm confident.

Yes, agreed.

The other half of the quote is pretty crucial to the point:

It’s like this: if you think quantum computers able to break 2048-bit cryptography within 3-5 years are a near-certainty, then I’d say your confidence is unwarranted. If you think such quantum computers, once built, will also quickly revolutionize optimization and machine learning and finance and countless other domains beyond quantum simulation and cryptanalysis—then I’d say that more likely than not, an unscrupulous person has lied to you about our current understanding of quantum algorithms.

Truth hurts.

‘We could have asked ChatGPT’: students fight back over course taught by AI Staffordshire students say signs material was AI-generated included suspicious file names and rogue voiceover accent

Student: "I know these slides are AI-generated, I know that everyone in this meeting knows these slides are AI-generated, I would rather you just scrap these slides. I do not want to be taught by GPT."

Tech bro: But what if we upgraded our AI to quantum AI?

If you add a "q" in your surname, you become a quantum startup!

Can't wait to be able to simulate a NISQ computer on a fault-tolerant one!

Going through my checklist of what quantum computing companies have promised so far:
✔️ cure disease
✔️ solve climate change
✔️ solve food insecurity

Also, you often hear that quantum will improve AI, which in turn is supposed to speed up solving everything that AI has been promised to solve.

Me with Hagoromo chalk.

'Vibe coding' named word of the year by Collins Dictionary The art of making an app by describing it to artificial intelligence (AI) tops 10 new terms on the shortlist.

2025 is officially the year of "vibe coding".

Quantum Markov Chains: Hub-Pruned Estimation for Fashion Recommenders We investigate whether shallow quantum circuits can accurately reproduce the short-horizon dynamics of discrete-time Markov chains derived from fashion electronic-commerce recommendation links. Transi...

Not sure what to wear tomorrow? Use shallow quantum circuits to decide this! They "can accurately reproduce the short-horizon dynamics of discrete-time Markov chains derived from fashion electronic-commerce recommendation links".

Even quantum CEOs are better at this.

Can I call them quantum panini relative entropies instead of sandwiched?

Classical gravity cannot mediate entanglement In Nature, 646, 813 (2025), Aziz and Howl claim that classical (unquantised) gravity produces entanglement. We show that their model does not produce entanglement. Even if the model produced entanglem...

A recent @nature.com article claims that classical (unquantised) gravity produces entanglement. We show that their model does not produce entanglement. Even if the model produced entanglement, it would be mediated by the quantised matter interaction, and not gravity. scirate.com/arxiv/2511.0... 🧪⚛️

Well-informed and accurate takes on the current state of quantum computing by @dangaristo.bsky.social. Good listen if you're outside the field or just entering it and want to get an honest picture.

Kudos for using the term "physics experiment" instead of "computer", and for coining "quantum FOMO".

Rose's law unfortunately cannot hold due to Russell's paradox. The quantum computer in question belongs to the set of "all computers" and is also part of "the universe", so it cannot be "faster than all computers" or "faster than the universe".

Did you know that in 2015 quantum computers were supposed to go "faster than the universe"?

Hey @springernature.com, doesn't this look worth some press coverage from you as well?

"Our results show a classical supercomputer would require more power than the Sun—or, in fact, the combined power of all stars in the visible universe—to complete the same task in the same amount of time."

But ChatGPT just gave me a long list of superheros that are more powerful than the sun!

The industry of vacuum technology is a good example.

Love the puzzles in the first section and their solutions in Appendix A. They address common misconceptions about quantum computing.
