You know that D-Wave's qubits have very high error rates, right? They have always espoused the "more qubits, more error" strategy. > but it's clear the basic seed is there for something that works; they just need a bigger graph and more connections between qubits. D-Wave has been trying for quite some time to increase the connectivity of the Chimera graphs with "pegasus" and so forth, it's a Hard Problem. > There's no reason to assume they won't have their own equivalent of Moore's Law at some point where these things grow year over year. Yes there is, adding more qubits is not a simple task like adding more transistors. Plus, more qubits doesn't necessarily help you unless you have the necessary connectivity as well, which is even superficially speaking at least quadratically difficult. > Do they have _any_ results worth caring about yet? You... you do realize that nothing D-Wave has shown so far is even faster than a laptop, right? And btw, I don't mean to be hating on D-Wave either, I think they get a lot of unnecessary hate.
