Quantum is interesting because it is making a transition from one of culture to another. (Has made?) But we can still fight to keep quantum weird!
A friend was telling me recently about getting together with lots of old-time quantum computing folks. They all work for companies now, and could only talk much more guardedly and broadly than in former times

This year's "The State of Quantum Computing", i.e., John Preskill's Q2B Keynote. Say hello to "Megaquop computing", and goodbye to NISQ. Thank you, John, for your consistent insights and contributions.
I created a transcript of my talk at the Q2B Conference: "Beyond NISQ: The Megaquop Machine." You can read it here:

Quantum error correction is beautiful and profound. It also works. Case in point: Atom Computing and our group at Microsoft Azure Quantum just posted "Logical computation demonstrated with a neutral atom quantum processor" as arxiv.org/abs/2411.11822.
Logical computation demonstrated with a neutral atom quantum processor
Transitioning from quantum computation on physical qubits to quantum computation on encoded, logical qubits can improve the error rate of operations, and will be essential for realizing valuable quant...
