Quantum computing, although exciting in terms of its powerful potential capabilities, is too speculative from an investment standpoint. It might well be true that quantum computing will eventually take off and fulfill all the promises the media speculates it to be, the whole investment landscape is still fraud.
Reasons are simple. 1) Looking at the patent landscape, progress is definitely there, but real breakthrough does not appear near. I won’t be as pessimistic as Jensen in his past timeline assessment, but I don’t see it happening anytime soon. 2) even if we are wrong in our assessment, I see the big players in computing like IBM and perhaps Microsoft taking a 🦁 share or completely dominating the market, leaving little for the rest. Market is simply throwing the bets in all directions “quantum”! Too speculative for my liking and most of them will fall flat.
I advocate to sit and watch the space. If you want, take a small bet here and there for the fun of it, but don’t chase!
