Dan Elton, this is a great analysis: Well written with a good explanation of the topic and why you have doubts. Elan Moritz, thank you for alerting me to Dan Elton's work.

💯✅🍀🎯 excellent exposition & solid recommendations… every five years or so I look into quantum computing and the ever fascinating battle of metaphors between google and ibm about quantum supremacy & quantum dominance… and my personal conclusions is that “there’s a pony there”, except that he’s rather tiny (right now), he’s fast asleep, and some princess has to kiss him to wake him up (too many metaphors 🤷‍♂️) or, maybe it’s a Schrödinger’s Pony. In any case, outstanding explanations Dan. Thank you, nice to see actual scholarship not pushing some biased POV. I truly would love to see an actual serious problem solved, not a concept for a concept of solving one.

Thank you Paul! I spent all day writing this. I had some help fact-checking and assembling info from ChatGPT.

Very useful. But why would you thank ChatGPT and Claude, but not any of the other computer programs you used in writing? Do you consider LLMs to be moral patients?
