Stanford scientists just built a room-temperature quantum device

In mice:

>It’s worth being honest about what the device represents, because press coverage of quantum technology tends to overshoot.

>This is not a room-temperature quantum computer. Building a working quantum computer requires many entangled qubits, error correction, and a host of other engineering capabilities that are still largely confined to cryogenic systems. The Stanford device is a step toward room-temperature quantum communication — the part of the field concerned with transmitting information securely using quantum properties, not running calculations.
