This "Goal-post shifting" is a sign of healthy scientific competition. : '''Haber-Bosch Process''' β The 100-year-old method we use for fertilizer that uses 2% of the world's energy. Finding a quantum alternative is the "Holy Grail" for saving the planet. : '''The 'Y2Q' Problem''' β The day a quantum computer becomes powerful enough to crack the world's encryption (Years away, but coming). : '''Protein Folding''' β While AI (AlphaFold) has made progress, a quantum computer could simulate the "Physics" of a folding protein with 100% accuracy, curing diseases like Alzheimer's. </div> <div style="background-color: #8B4500; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
