Just to be clear, everyone agrees on the advantages of QC and no one disputes that Google has built a quantum computer. Let me try to paraphrase the arguments.

Just to be clear, everyone agrees on the advantages of QC and no one disputes that Google has built a quantum computer. Let me try to paraphrase the arguments. 1. QC needs qbits. 1 logical qbit needs many (tens to hundreds) of physical qbits. 2. We need Quantum Error Correction(QEC) to read cleanly from qbits. Current algorithms for QEC need about a 1000 logical qbits. 3. Current state of technology has only 50 - 200 qbits has very low signal to noise and the noise is inherent in the system (you cannot engineer it away) 4. The current systems, specifically Google’s, produce a sequence of numbers. It is possible to have a low complexity algorithm on classical computer which can produce similar sequences (i.e. pass the test for QC produced sequence) 4 is possible because reading from the qbits is noisy and such a noisy data can at best replicate a classical computer. So, the current state of the art, Noisy Intermediate State Quantum computers are not useful for any computation and we need to get to 1000+ qbits to achieve the supremacy. Of course, not everyone agrees that the noise cannot be engineered away or even if the noise is such a big deal.
