Quantum Computing: A Revolutionary Leap Still in Progress

Richard Feynman's 1981 lecture at MIT sparked the birth of quantum computing, revolutionizing how calculations could be performed. Despite advancements, practical quantum computers remain elusive. They utilize qubits for simultaneous data processing, making them faster for specific problems. Companies like Google and IBM lead in this field. Error correction is now prioritized over sheer qubit count. Exciting developments are expected in the next decade.
