Quantum computers outside of laboratory boundaries will give global supremacy to the country that will be able to build them first. This global excellence and supremacy will be universal and in almost all areas (economic, commercial, geopolitical, defence-security, etc.).
The global technology titan called Google, three months ago, announced that it is turning its efforts into new areas such as better distribution and management of all kinds of scarce resources, designing new materials and medicines, etc.

One of these areas that will give a country a global superiority is the design and construction of a quantum computer outside of laboratory boundaries. Large scale quantum computer and fully functional that can manage various issues.
The scientific journal Nature three months ago announced in its article that Google succeeded in creating and constructing a quantum computer which made a calculation that under other circumstances with the use of conventional computers would require thousands of years to achieve.

What is a quantum computer?
The quantum computing speed is tremendously faster than the speed of today’s conventional computers. This feature is since the quantum computer can separate more situations in its operating base compared to the operating base of conventional computers based on adding 1 and 0.
This component allows quantum computing to do extremely complex calculations over a fraction of the time compared to the corresponding computing time required by conventional computers.
The importance of quantum computing
The use of quantum computing will change the entire life of mankind if it is used for good purposes and not for bad purposes. More specifically, quantum computing will give scientists new ways to create new materials-that will change the way of thinking and constructing many things from cars, houses, planes, ships to satellites and clothing, etc.-but and pharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical materials that will further improve the life expectancy of people and all together will increase at high levels the country’s GDP that will hold them.
In addition, scientists will be able to understand much better and to give better and more convincing answers on issues relating to the nature of the universe.
On the other hand, the country-holder of a quantum computer outside of laboratory boundaries could break and violate any security code and any type of encryption on the planet within a few hours giving it the ability to access any type of state security secret, treasury, nuclear arsenal, etc.
That is why the governments of the strongest states should work together to build these hyper-computers for the good of mankind. But the construction of the quantum computer out of laboratory boundaries has already become a field of political and strategic competition between the US, China, Russia, the EU, such as other cutting-edge technologies e.g. 5G, Artificial Intelligence etc.
