I'm pretty sure quantum computing is not seen negatively around here. In fact, articles on Scott Aaronson's blog for instance turn up regularly. What is seen negatively for sure is the hype train, to which this article clearly belongs, as it is basically a press release for Quantinuum. I mean, on the one hand, I'm happy that people have figured out how to get VC money for fundamental quantum research. However, I think in the end, this kind of hype will do more harm than good for the field. The hype train will eventually crash, and researchers will go elsewhere (see also: neural networks in the AI winter).
