| Summary |
This report takes stock of the global quest to build and scale quantum computers and emphasizes the U.S.-China dynamic. To counter the risk of U.S. adversaries achieving surprise scientific breakthroughs and weaponizing quantum systems, U.S. policymakers must understand the potential power of quantum computers, the state of quantum technology research and development, and the barriers to continued progress. They must also understand what U.S. adversaries hope to achieve in quantum technology and the implications of ceding U.S. leadership in this critical field |
