Sounds very click-baity.<p>1) Quantum computers are not able to solve NP-complete problems. They have their own complexity class, BQP, that is suspected to be disjunct from the class of NP-complete problems.<p>2) If they solved just one configuration, like it said in the article, that doesn&#x27;t prove anything. They must be able to solve any problems in that class of problems.<p>3) However, even if they &quot;just&quot; found a way to solve an NP-complete problem 10000 times more energy efficiently, that&#x27;s impressive, even if it won&#x27;t scale. (And it won&#x27;t, because it&#x27;s NP-complete.) Just don&#x27;t do those clickbait things, OK?
