That's a completely valid interpretation shared by many physicists and quantum computer scientists. Media often misinterprets this to mean that the result is available instantly in one step, but actually we have to interfere those "worlds" to get the result with some algorithmic complexity that is unavoidable to quantum computers
- balsam 4y agoI don’t know of any physicist or CScientist who makes use of parallel universes in their thinking or publications. They may invoke the mystique to impress outsiders though.
