Yeah, it's really interesting. Seems like a scalable general purpose machine (what could break RSA encryption) is a long way off, but probably within our lifetimes. If you're interested in learning it, Scott Aaronson and his students have put together a textbook based on his lecture notes, only prerequisite is basic linear algebra. He's a raging lib but absolutely unmatched when it comes to technical exposition.

However, we want him on our side.
Good luck with that
Yep easier said than done. Castro said all the engineers left once the revolution happened.
