AD Little on Quantum: 4 Myths and 5 Ways to Get Started

Quantum systems will potentially be exponentially more powerful than other forms of computing. That’s a good thing, of course, but it’s also true that quantum is proportionately more complicated than other technologies, making reading and talking about it more difficult by orders of magnitude. That’s why a new paper from Arthur D. Little comes as a breath of fresh air….
