Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang claims quantum computing is decades away, but is it really? The quantum era isn’t decades away — it’s unfolding in real-time.

Nvidia's Jensen Huang suggests quantum computers won't make a big impact in the near future, so we'll likely have to wait until 2045.

Quantum-computing companies, whose valuations exploded in 2024, took a major hit Wednesday following Huang’s remarks. Rigetti Computing, which develops quantum integrated circuits for quantum computers, saw its shares dive 45% Wednesday as of market close. The company’s stock shot up as much as 1,654% over the past year leading up to Wednesday.
