Such conditions are hard to create and typically require temperatures near absolute zero and shielding from radiation. Thus, building quantum computers is expensive and difficult. The challenge increases dramatically with increasing size (number of…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1905.07240/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
