The societal and technological impact of Quantum Computers

Article

Abstract

This research focuses on quantum computing. These are rapidly developing technologies that can significantly advance areas such as cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and data processing. The study examines both the advantages and limitations of quantum systems. The main goal of this research was to understand whether the world is ready for a quantum computer era and its future consequences. The investigation showed that quantum computing has certain limitations, including potential harms to cybersecurity. However, many studies suggest the development of new encryption methods to prevent quantum cyberattacks. The results of the work show that NISQ is highly noise-proneprone and error-prone. And many researchers expect a gradual transition to hybrid systems that combine classical and quantum computing. The study concludes that, while quantum computing has great potential, it still faces significant challenges, including stability, error correction, and ethical issues. The technology is still too immature for full-scale implementation. Still, a future can be envisioned in which quantum and classical systems coexist in a hybrid model, gradually shaping a new era of computing.
