May I Introduce You To The Quantum Business Hypester.
The force of unsubstantiated claims is his powerful ally
When you start learning about quantum machine learning, you’ll face many claims about the potential of this technology.
Just looking at claims made about quantum computing alone leaves me speechless. McKinsey and Forbes agree: Quantum computing could be the decisive technology to protect our climate and become a major factor in limiting global warming.
The emerging technology of quantum computing could revolutionize the fight against climate change, transforming the economics of decarbonization and becoming a major factor in limiting global warming to the target temperature of 1.5°C. — McKinsey
The application of quantum technologies could transform the energy industry and lead to cleaner energy with fewer emissions. — Forbes
But are these realistic and well-founded forecasts or tales of pipe dreams?
We can’t judge a claim based on how fantastic it may sound today. We can’t judge it even if it sounded to good to be true. Just go back a couple of years and think of whether an algorithm could ever produce human-like text that passes the Turing test. What would you have said?
We must learn to tell the difference between fact and fiction.
