Electric current is also quantum phenomena, but it is also very averaged in most circumstances that lead to practical real world effects.

What is wonderful here is that contemporary electronics wizardry that allowed us to have machines that mimic some of thinking, also is very concerned of the quantum-level electromagnetic effects at the transistor level.
