I'm generally skeptical of the threat posed by quantum computing, and I'm certainly not inclined to buy much of what Ben Sasson is selling. But, I've found Aaronson to be pretty reasonable in the past and this interview wasn't bad.

haha. I love how these guys try to minimize the challenge....

There is no theoretical issue with you balancing 8000 champagne glasses on a silver platter while you ski down mount everest....its simply an "engineering problem"

They gotta keep pumping their investors....
