The Hot Take: Can't have other countries get there first. Nat Sec vulnerability for sure.
The US government has taken $2 billion worth of equity stakes in quantum computing companies, including one linked to the Trump family.

Now if they can program quantum computers we might actually make a huge break through. Only thing is we'd be starting at where the 60s where with computers, large and clunky for sure.
QuantWare's US$178 million Series B round aims to accelerate the global rollout of larger, industrial-scale quantum processors, promising hyperscale quantum compute through its VIO-40K architecture and KiloFab foundry — a development that could reshape supply chains, national technology capabilities, and industrial adoption for countries seeking scalable quantum computing.

NVIDIA has introduced Ising, its newest OpenAI models designed to make Quantum Computers useful and faster with brand new capabilities. NVIDIA Ising AI Models For Quantum Computers Bring Up To 3x Performance Boost Quantum Computing has been cited as the next frontier of computing for decades. Several companies have been trying to perfect quantum computing for years now, and only now have a few started to break the code. NVIDIA already offers an open-source development platform for quantum computing called CUDA-Q. The platform is "qubit-agnostic" and works seamlessly with QPUs and Qubit Modalities. Today, NVIDIA is announcing its first family […]Read full article at https://wccftech.com/nvidia-made-quantum-computing-practical-with-ising-worlds-first-open-ai-models/

alternative_right quotes a report from the New York Post: The CIA used a futuristic new tool called "Ghost Murmur" to find and rescue the second American airman who was shot down in southern Iran, The Post has learned. The secret technology uses long-range quantum magnetometry to find the electromagnetic fingerprint of a human heartbeat and pairs the data with artificial intelligence software to isolate the signature from background noise, two sources close to the breakthrough said. It was the tool's first use in the field by the spy agency -- and was alluded to Monday afternoon by President Trump and CIA Director John Ratcliffe at a White House briefing. "It's like hearing a voice in a stadium, except the stadium is a thousand square miles of desert," a source briefed on the program told The Post. "In the right conditions, if your heart is beating, we will find you." The relatively barren landscape made for "an ideal first operational use" of Ghost Murmur, the first source noted. "Normally this signal is so weak that it can only be measured in a hospital setting with sensors pressed nearly against the chest," the source said. "But advances in a field known as quantum magnetometry -- specifically sensors built around microscopic defects in synthetic diamonds -- have apparently made it possible to detect these signals at dramatically greater distances." "The capability is not omniscient. It works best in remote, low-clutter environments and requires significant processing time," this person added. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

New research from Google suggests that future quantum computers will develop quickly enough to pose a risk to elliptic-curve cryptography, used in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, as soon as 2029, and its researchers say action should be taken now to prepare.

The partnership between the U.S. and the U.K. is a key advantage, as it was during World War II.
