Quantum computing uses quantum mechanics to perform fast and complex calculations. It is often defined as a disruptive technology and is among the advanced technologies at the forefront of US-China competition. Although the US has been in the lead in the development and applications of quantum technology, China is making rapid strides.

“There are so few private sector players involved in China’s quantum ecosystem, and those were two of the biggest.” —Sam Howell, Center for a New American Security. ... Trying to divine the motivations behind these divergent strategies is tricky, given the opaque nature of much decision-making in the county, says Sam Howell, a research associate at the Washington, D.C.-based think tank the Center for a New American Security.

2024 could be a pivotal year for America’s quantum technology leadership. Two pieces of legislation — the National Quantum Initiative (NQI) Act Reauthorization and the FY 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) — are vital to advancing American competitiveness in quantum technology and safeguarding critical U.S. advantages.

Today, there is a grave and growing gap in Washington’s long-term analysis: technology competition. Although the ONA has done laudable analyses of key technology trends, its focus on how those trends specifically affect the U.S. military misses the ever-expanding role technology plays in national and economic security.

In recent weeks, Republican senators have insisted on stronger border security measures as a condition for passing urgent aid for Ukraine, Israel, and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Although there is virtue in limiting the agenda of a time-sensitive negotiation, focusing narrowly on the border misses the opportunity to address another way our broken immigration system hurts national security — the damage to America’s technology leadership.

The possible strategic advantages of quantum computing, a subfield of quantum information science that leverages quantum mechanics to solve complex problems at unprecedented speeds, are numerous and significant. Several technical bottlenecks still prevent quantum computers from delivering impactful real-world effects, but quantum technology is maturing rapidly, with implications for the Quad partners’ civilian and military sectors.

Technology is a central front in the strategic competition between the U.S. and China. Beijing and Washington both understand that whichever nation leads in key emerging technologies could unlock decisive advantages — from an advanced AI that can supercharge battlefield decision-making to a quantum computer that can unlock every encrypted secret. If the dangers of falling behind in the global tech race are obvious, so is the best way for America to stay ahead: high-skilled immigration reform.
