Explains concrete claims and tooling: chemistry simulation that classically needs ~3 billion years gets reduced to ~30,000 years then to 30,000 years to 1.5 days by improved quantum algorithms and tooling; 2048-bit RSA needs ~5,000 qubits, a femoral molecule needs ≈120 qubits, current qubits hold tens of milliseconds and require millikelvin fridges. Open-source stack includes Q# and an Azure simulator that realistically simulates up to ~40–45 qubits; quantum‑inspired optimization already improves real hospital cancer‑detection workflows.
