Council Post: 12 Industries And Focuses Set To Be Revolutionized By Quantum Computing

How fast is quantum computing? By some estimates, quantum computers may be 158 million times faster than the fastest current supercomputer. Many of us may think such power is destined to be a tool used solely for complex scientific calculations, but it may soon play a significant role in functions and industries that impact our everyday lives. Further, while quantum technology could play a tremendous role in improving everything from human health to energy exploration, in unscrupulous hands, our increasingly digital work and personal lives could be at added risk. Tech experts are clear: The time to prepare for the impacts of quantum computing (both good and bad) is now.
