One of the big challenges is being able to frame real world concrete problems in terms that are solvable by quantum algorithms. There are a shocking lack of examples out there.
Even when the hardware is there, it isn’t clear how quantum computing can do useful things. But I suspect this is a solvable problem of good communications. But right now, experts in quantum don’t seem to be able to provide these examples. Or they don’t exist.

- dr_dshiv 3y agoDo you see any examples of real world problems in there? Mostly, it is very abstract. This creates a problem, if it is unclear how to use quantum computing to address real world information processing problems
- reikonomusha 3y agoI think this is partly an exercise in defining what "real world" means. To many, solving number theory problems, especially factorization, is real world enough. It's just not Silicon Valley monetizable.
