In the context: Nvidia Jensen Huang CEO recently said that “real” quantum computers will need a few years, or even contracts, to appear on the market. His comments have damaged quantum stock, so now he wants to do so.
Jensen Huang did not expect doubts about the immediate commercial feasibility of the quantum computers of the effect of the companies listed in Wall Street. As part of the last NVIDIA event, “Day Day”, the businessman and the Taiwanese engineer called on the guests to explain the reason for the error of his negative observations.
Earlier this year, Huang said that the practical quantum computer will not be available for purchase for another 15 to 30 years, with 20 years of the most optimistic time frame. On Thursday, it is revision His statement, saying that quantum computing has the ability to change everything. Technology is still incredibly complicated.
HUANG compared quantum companies “before revenue” with NVIDIA companies, which needed more than 20 years to build suitable business for hardware and software. Then joking about the market reaction, noting that it was surprised that the quantum computer companies had already circulated. The annual NVIDIA GTC conference included a committee that includes representatives of 12 different computers and startups, indicating that NVIDIA is very interested in the quantum computing sector.
Nvidia is the largest semiconductor company in the world. NVIDIA chips are used in strong simulations to help design and build quantum computers. Although the company can work well without quantum business, NVIDIA is still interested in providing the industry and is excited to see where it goes.
Jensen Huang is not alone in expressing some doubts (retreat) about the feasibility of quantum computing. In 2023, an article Nature stated that the current quantum computers available for “Nothing Nothing” compared to the traditional architecture of the bilateral computer. This technology still needs a lot of breakthroughs, with the continued existence of the superiority in the future.
Huang also hinted that he wants to avoid bold predictions about computing from now on. A few years ago, he said that the “accelerated computing”, which includes NVIDIA graphics units and other specialized chips, will replace traditional computing based on the CPU. Of course, he was wrong.
