Quantum Computing is in production today with Adiabatic Systems. Even NISQ quantum solutions have great potential

Why Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, was So Wrong About Quantum Computing

Jensen Huang made a very controversial statement during a Q&A at CES 2025.

Basically, he said that practical quantum computers are 20 years in the future and that that was a reasonable estimate.

He is a very smart person, and I respect him a lot, so I’ll assume that he meant quantum computers coming to the individual desktop.

Because quantum computing systems are already in production for adiabatic quantum computers (the major player here being D-Wave).

And Gate-based quantum computing systems, despite facing several challenges, are just the forerunners of a massive revolution that will take place once quantum hardware improves.

Unlike my usual articles, I am going to link to my sources inline so that you can check and verify my claims by yourself while reading this article.
