I'll read it when I'm home. But I want to say that the fact that this is from google "quantum AI" makes me doubt the legitimacy. They are really ruining their reputation with all the absurd quantum stuff they have been publishing, e.g: their wormhole stuff and a lot of quantum neural networks bs.

It would be a good idea to read the blog post before making comments.

The result looks very interesting, and the blog post is well written (e.g., I did not know about the prior work re. Grover's algorithm and pendulum systems).

The blog post is also based on a recent FOCS paper, and the authors are reputable people in CS theory, if that convinces anyone to take a closer look.

Stop basing your opinions on titles alone. Most of their blog posts on AI and quantum are exceptionally well written and researched, even the one you referenced: "Making a Dual of a Traversable Wormhole with a Quantum Computer" [1]

It's like saying quantum teleportation [2] is BS, just because you don't like the SF sounding word "teleportation".

I sort of agree. Quantum computing is interesting, AI is interesting, "quantum AI" is a meme and almost certainly not interesting. On the other hand the Google team do do a lot of cool research, and I assume the scientists weren't consulted by the MBA marketing idiots who came up with the name.

The "wormhole" thing was scientifically interesting as a quantum simulation of a non-trivial gravitational thing. A lot of the media stuff was garbage, but the actual science they did was quite cool.

Anyone have an interesting link to some quantum neural network bs? Sounds interesting...
