The Download: a useful quantum machine and a record-breaking subsea tunnel

The article features two main topics: advancements in quantum computing and a major infrastructure project. First, it discusses PsiQuantum's vision for building a functional quantum computer using photonic qubits, despite the challenges posed by competition and technical complexity. Second, it highlights the construction of the world's longest and deepest subsea road tunnel beneath the North Sea, emphasizing the engineering achievement and the importance of ambitious projects. Additionally, the article includes brief mentions of related news: a lawsuit against Meta alleging discriminatory AI use in layoff decisions, OpenAI's upcoming AI-powered smart speaker, and the U.S. military's use of explosive drone boats in combat.
