Our increasingly digitized world is creating more data every year, including videos from ubiquitous smart phones, observations from billions of sensors and surveillance cameras, output from artificial intelligence, and much more. Until now, exponential growth in data storage capacity has largely kept pace with the flood of data at a steady cost. This trend may not continue, according to John Monroe at Furthur Market Research, who for almost 25 years, until 2022, was an analyst at Gartner.

Many important practical computations, such as scheduling, combinatorial, and optimization problems, use techniques known as integer programming to find the best combination of many variables. In these problems, some or all of the variables are restricted to integer values, which requires exponentially greater resources to solve than if the variables could take any value.

In the mid-1990s, Peter Shor, at AT&T Bell Labs and then one of its heirs, AT&T Labs, devised the first algorithms that one day could exploit the intrinsic parallelism of quantum computing. In particular, Shor, now at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), showed that quantum techniques could be exponentially faster than any classical computer at finding the factors of a very large number, a task whose difficulty is key to the security of widely used public-key cryptography techniques.

Quantum computing has been making steady progress toward large and reliable systems. Hundreds of qubits (quantum bits) have been integrated and experimentally argued to outperform classical computing in specialized cases. The fidelity of qubits also has improved, but their high sensitivity to outside influence means they will always be much more fidgety than traditional electronics, and truly useful quantum computing will need ways to correct the inevitable errors.
