![]() ![]() ![]() With public sector leaders facing such difficult problems every day, quantum information technology is beginning to show real promise not just to solve problems, but to improve people’s lives as well. 1 Quantum information technology excels at problems where classical computers may be able to verify an answer but have extreme difficulty finding the precise solution from among the billions of other possibilities. This fundamentally different approach to problem-solving gives quantum technologies some unique capabilities. Therein lies the power of quantum information technology. There are certain problems that are incredibly difficult to solve mathematically, but easy to do with physics. They do not make soap bubbles by solving math equations for bubbles they use the laws of physics. So, does that mean the plastic wands you buy at the dollar store are mathematical geniuses? Of course not. Mathematically modeling the formation of a soap bubble turns out to be incredibly challenging. ![]() ![]() They harness the fundamental properties of atoms to solve problems. But quantum information technologies work differently. Since the days of mechanical adding machines, we have solved problems by representing them as math problems and encoding logic into mechanical or electronic circuits to solve them. Quantum information technologies create value because they work fundamentally differently from the way classical technologies do. ![]()
