Everyone surely loves a portmanteau. Take quantum and combine it with economics. Think of quantinomics as being the discipline of how quantum computing can operate commercially. We have been writing on quantum and momentum on the topic continues to build. Blog this season covered the current state of affairs. To further our knowledge on the topic, we were recently privileged to speak with another industry expert on the topic.
What makes quantum computing increasingly relevant is that a strong industry consensus is emerging that commercial quantum services will likely be available in around five years’ time. Take 2030 as a base case. By then many experts believe that rates will have fallen, correspondingly reducing the energy intensity required to power the technology.. These factors should allow the industry to reach escape velocity and scale more quickly.
Quantum matters since it provides the path to a new computing era. Our contact described it as “breaking the glass ceiling on Moore’s Law.” The co-founder of Intel that as chip transistors double, so costs should fall by an equivalent amount. Such a world view argues for smaller, faster and more affordable compute power. When Moore’s Law reaches its practical limit, quantum has the potential to take over and drive an exponential increase in compute power.
Why does this matter? Put simply, quantum can “expand the number of problems we can solve” and “unlock a technological revolution.” Quantum computers are ideally designed for solving optimisation challenges, whether these may be in creating novel chemicals, materials and medicines or designing better organisational systems in the worlds of logistics and data. The number of use-cases “justify building the machine.” The quantum revolution may be upon us soon(ish).
