I'm of the thought that if it's prone to errors then the speed at which it makes an error isn't really something to brag about. Unless it arrives at the correct conclusion then it really hasn't performed its task.
This is why there’s a critical difference between physical qubits and logical qubits.
Logical qubits are the theoretical perfect qubit that operates with zero error.
Physical qubits are the actual, error prone, information storing, quantum state.
Currently, it takes a lot of physical qubits to make one logical qubit. And it is this scaling that is driving most of the research.

But what if it guesses right on the first try? Or halfway through?
They're probably assuming the worst case where it tries everything. That will grab a lot more attention in the news headlines.
But, even if they try 1% of all possibilities before finding the right answer, it's still a huge number of possibilities.

This is more dangerous than people realize.
In the wrong hands, banking security, infrastructure, the nuclear football, could hacked in seconds.

Sorry, it all just sounds like magic.

Google announced it themselves.
It’s also years and years away from practical applications.
In other words, the same place quantum computing has been, well, forever.

It’s wonky and they spend most of the development money shielding the thing from the interference of people tending to it and setting up the individual runs.
And that's how it starts

I wonder how close to absolute Kelvin they had to get the containment vessel for that to occur

Maybe, but I have seen a few people that are not prone to hyperbole say this is a pretty significant milestone in the advancement of quantum computing, and that they seriously don't know what the 2030s will look like

If true quantum computers will change everything. If you think we have come a long way over the past 100 years, then this would shrink that window down to a few years. This would make things like AI much more powerful than the human brain.

The end is near. It already knows how useless humans are.

Ok…..now what baw?

Can you even run LLM’s on quantum computers?

I am glad to have lived in a primitive age before humans became strictly an energy source for technology. We could not compute quickly but we knew how to grow tomatoes in the back yard and we enjoyed doing so.
