🚨 Breaking News: Scott Aaronson's quantum blog drops *shocking* revelation: quantum computers aren't magic! 🤯 But wait, there's more! 🏆 He casually mentions being elected to the National Academy of Sciences, sandwiched between humblebrags about famous friends. 🙄 Classic Scott, keeping it low-key. 😂

More on whether useful quantum computing is “imminent”

These days, the most common question I get goes something like this: A decade ago, you told people that scalable quantum computing wasn’t imminent. Now, though, you claim it plausibly is immi…

The QMA Singularity

A couple days ago, Freek Witteveen of CWI and I posted a paper to the arXiv called “Limits to black-box amplification in QMA.” Let me share the abstract: We study the limitations of bla…

Scott Aaronson's blog post takes us on a bizarre journey where quantum computers don’t magically fix problems, and somehow pivots to K12 education #reform 🧙‍♂️🔮. Meanwhile, the dramatic narrative about a murderous past reads like a rejected Hollywood script 🤦‍♂️.

👨‍🏫🤔 Scott Aaronson tackles the profound question of "How much #math is knowable?" in a #YouTube video, presumably for those who confuse deep philosophical inquiry with a weekend Netflix binge. 📺💡 Meanwhile, the rest of us are busy trying to figure out how many digits of pi we actually need to remember—spoiler: it's less than three. 🥧🔢
