There’s a new arms race on the planet and it has nothing to do with nukes. It’s a computing arms race - who will be first to develop true quantum computing.
As mentioned before the USA and China are vying to create the world’s first qubit computing machine - Britain, France, Japan and others are all pouring research money into the field too.
It’s not just for the status or the kudos - quantum computing has the potential to answer the deepest and knottiest problems in the world.
It also has the ability to bust all known encryption security methods in the blink of an eye. Hence the rush to develop technologies which can combat the security aspects before the first q-computer comes onstream.
It all seems miles away from the sedate world of mushroom growing, but qubit computing will revolutionise all aspects of life, including agriculture and the science of mushrooms too.
