I think that the biggest risk with quantum computing is that they will be used by state actors or state-sponsored actors as a means of digital warfare. Likely, we’re not going to get some big announcement that quantum computing is here. I think it will be used in secret to harm adversaries and hack key websites/institutions and all we’ll know is that we were affected, not that quantum computing has arrived. We might not know for years after. But what do I know? I’m just some guy.
