Quantum Error Correction Will Supercharge the Quantum Computing Market

S. Schuchart

Summary Bullets:

• Quantum error correction is a significant driver for quantum computing research and the unending quest for quantum supremacy

• The quantum computing market will explode if quantum error correction allows for markedly more stable qubits

As 2022 continues its exorable march towards 2023, the developments in the quantum computing market continue at a dizzying pace. Its particularly remarkable considering that quantum supremacy is still elusive. Quantum supremacy, also sometimes called quantum advantage, is when a quantum computer can solve problems faster than its classical computing counterparts. Without quantum supremacy, the commercial uses and long term prospects of quantum computing evaporate like water droplets in a hot skillet.
