Quantum Computing: Hype, Reality and Business Relevance for Materials Discovery
summary
Argues quantum combined with HPC and AI can cut materials discovery time and lab work by yielding more accurate property predictions, citing a 10× speedup for a catalyst structure and a 75% faster quantum simulation for plasma states; highlights metal organic frameworks with ~10^60 candidates and a hybrid quantum‑classical workflow used to narrow designs; claims economic upside of ~$2 trillion and an 80/20 split of value to end users versus providers; stresses data quality, hardware limits and a looming talent shortfall.
