What is so great about quantum computers?
What can they do that normal computers cannot?

qubits.
They can hold multiple values at the same time where our traditional "bits" of today can only hold ... well 1-bit of information.

That isn't how the superposition of qubits works
They are in any state inclusively between 0 and 1 until they are observed in which case they immediately "snap" to a 0 or 1.
Quantum computers will only be useful for certain kinds of algorithms/processing because of the tunneling effect. Our home computers will still operate the way they do now.

really nigga?

I could have sworn that they hold both states.

This is the only video on YouTube that actually explains it well:

Every other video is all "quantum computers are the future, qubits are literally jesus's neurons incarnate" and all kinds of misinformation

Thank you for that video! Yeah that was a very good explanation in my opinion.
>>51958269
They can transmit and receive info faster than light.
>>51958269
They can simulate quantum systems much faster than traditional computers
