i wonder if it means anything that the last like 6 Big Technological Crazes have all been scams and flops. it's probably fine and not a symptom of any kind
I'm at the point where I personally don't believe quantum computing is a threat because it's yet another thing IBM has pivoted to bet the farm on, like "blockchain" and "AI" before that
Quantum computing has a large number of real, good and useful potential applications but they require approaching the technology with humility and on its own level instead of It Is Going To Change The World Just Like The Internet, It Is A New Revolution, Please Buy Our Dumb Bullshit so I have no hope now that it will ever develop into a fully useful form, just like machine learning now.
