BREAKING: ‼️🤖
Google makes quantum computing breakthrough with new chip capable of solving computational problems in under 5 minutes, that would otherwise take the leading supercomputer: 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years

Hype, hype and more hype.
Good for Alphabet stock promotion. That's about it.
This so called "problem" they resolved is called "Random Circuit Sampling". This is a specially constructed test that is designed to give the maximum possible advantage to a quantum computer and thus gauge it's efficiency against the theoretical limits.
What they are saying with this non breakthrough is that they got their tiny, 105 qubit computer to solve this problem in 5 minutes. A good result, but hardly earth shattering. Google even says this computer is only for R&D and it is not ready to tackle real world problems.
Interesting that every 2nd post on Twitter about this announcement was "Bitcoin is Dead!". At the same time, we have equally nonsensical announcements about "$3 Trillion USD of gold discovered in multiple countries"
It's almost as if there are 2 factions both vying to sew distrust in the other side's preferred financial asset.
Stay skeptical. This part of the psyop looks like it is just heating up.
