Quantum hardware has finally crossed a psychological threshold: it is no longer a science project in search of a purpose, it is a working tool that large companies and governments are starting to use.

Part 1 of this series explained what quantum computers actually are. Not just faster versions of regular computers, but a fundamentally different kind of machine that exploits the weird rules of ...

Quantum computing promises to reshape energy by enabling advanced simulations and accelerating materials discovery for carbon ...

Governments and technology companies are fueling an urgent, high-stakes race to develop quantum power, which promises to revolutionize- and potentially compromise - global security Quantum computing ...

Chicago has quickly emerged as a hub for quantum computing, with the state of Illinois and technology companies pouring millions of dollars into developing a campus to build the world’s first ...

For decades, quantum computing has felt like something out of science fiction — abstract, theoretical, and always “10 years away.” But in 2025, the story has changed. Quantum technology is no longer ...

I see three investment lanes for quantum computing: pure plays like IonQ (IONQ) and Rigetti (RGTI); the "Magnificent Seven" giants with quantum divisions; and infrastructure picks-and-shovels. Which ...
