Claims that quantum machines can beat classical for specific problems, not universally, and that molecular simulation will arrive long before RSA breaking; Microsoft shows concrete progress: Q# open source with simulators that run roughly 30 qubit local simulation, a cloud coprocessor model, and resource estimation tooling that cuts a chemistry problem from 10^17 to ~10^10 resources and further to a day‑and‑a‑half runtime after optimization. Hardware approach targets Majorana‑based qubits in millikelvin fridges to reduce error rates; demo uses Hadamard tests to show measurement collapse and interference.
