One could imagine stimulating experiments that are implausible to actually perform.
- ori_b 3y agoYes, but that's nothing new -- we've had computers that were used to solve simulations faster than digital comuters could by setting up electronic (or hydraulic, or pneumatic) parts that simulated the terms of the differential equations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_computer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_computer Is this quantum computer another iteration on the same concept, or is it solving things that are polynomially harder to simulate classically?
