Note that he only recently finished his PhD in a tangential area related to Quantum computing, so he is not a giant in a field like say Aronson who I would be interested in knowing what they think on this industry. I do in fact agree with most of the article. However I also think if you measure ratio of scientific/technological impact to funding, I would place Quantum Computing for higher than many other hype bubbles such as crypto, blockchain, web3. In other words the size of funding QC is getting is nowhere close to the other hype bubbles and there are some significant peer-reviewed results that have been generated from it, so for the time being you can still give it the benefit of the doubt. For example, compare how many QC startups YC has funded (I think 0?) compared to blockchain, crypto, AI-assisted medicine and web3. There is no comparison. Picking on QC is far below my list if you want to have a go at hype bubbles.
