We want to know how drugs will work in the human brain, to heal Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Autism. Classical computing can't run the simulations necessary to model that, and we're not going to be like the Nazis and run unethical science experiments on unwilling human subjects, so we need quantum computing to be able to model on a computer how things will interact in order to help people. That qbits are sensitive t…
I agree that the applications for drugs design and material simulations would be the near future for QC, but unfortunately my professor seems not to focus on them. That's another source of my anxiety: when other groups are considering Fault tolerant frameworks, we are still at the most physical layer, and left behind by routes like neural atoms. So that may be more likely a personal trouble lol. As for the sensitivit…
As far as the sensitivity. Yes they're more sensitive than ICs. My point was before clean rooms, that level of cleanliness was unheard-of. That quantum computing is another step up isn't surprising. Consider the conditions for some of the most advanced particle physics experiments. Room drafts have nothing on the LHC.
