wouldn't it be more fair to compare to an FPGA solution for those problem sets?

- Devilboy 14y agoSure but that's not the point here. The important thing is that this quantum computer actually WORKS. In 2 years classical computers will be maybe 5 times faster. But this quantum computer will be 1000s of times faster (at these specific problems) so very soon any comparison will be irrelevant.
- easytiger 13y agoalso i'm pretty sure if we used a computer of the same size as the quantum one (a fairly large room) it may also have been a different story)
- kolbe 14y agomy thoughts exactly. and i think 'more fair' is an understatement. i'd say this news is meaningless until they compare d-wave to an optimized FPGA solution.
