The question is not whether we will see quantum computers widely used, but when...
The highly-complex technology is increasingly being tipped to transform computing.
Now is the perfect time to develop skills, research new security protocols, and experiment with potential use cases.
Quantum computers could hack digital secrets, but there are other valuable use cases for quantum machines and systems.
Yes, it's another potential qubit. But it's also some very cool physics.
