Leading governments around the globe, along with major corporations, including IBM, Google, Microsoft, have all made substantial investments in the development of large-scale quantum computers, just in the past decade. There's a reason for this prescient obsession. What exactly is quantum computing? Quantum computing is basically the combination of information theory and quantum mechanics. At first, this combination of domains may appear obvious. But if we think a little bit more deeply, we might notice that these two domains are probably the most unlikely combination. This is because information theory, used by your computer, smartphone, etc., is characterized by a high degree of certainty: states that are on or off, one or zero. A conventional computer treats each state like a light bulb that is on or off, one or zero.
