Last time I understood they got a classical speedup. And yeah if Scott says it ain&#x27;t working, it ain&#x27;t working, agreed there.<p>I am wondering if they demonstrated there is quantum entangling taking place between qubits and have they observed an asymptotic speedup?<p>Wonder if there is some hesitation to just say, yeah this doesn&#x27;t work. We spent all this time and money on it, but that&#x27;s ok. We learned what doesn&#x27;t work that is still valuable.<p>I studied quantum computing a while back (maybe 7-8 years ago). There was a feeling it was going to be the next big thing. Grover&#x27;s search and Shor&#x27;s factoring was promising. But I think we ended up mostly with pictures of cats in the cloud and Javascript on the server ;-) which is ok too, I guess.
