On the Emerging Potential of Quantum Annealing Hardware for Combinatorial Optimization — mentioned by tasseff

To my knowledge, it is an open challenge to find real-world problem instances where existing quantum annealers outperform state-of-the-art classical alternatives. It's even hard to find _extremely contrived families of instances_ where practical computational benefits can be observed with quantum annealing. I recently contributed to one such benchmarking manuscript [1], which may indicate future promise as the number of qubits in quantum annealers continues to increase. Anyway, as a result of that experience, I'm skeptical of the benchmarking efforts that led these two companies to the…
