Quantum vs Bio

[Smallfrie81]

So what is the popular sentiment? Will biocomputers or quantum computers be the next big revolution in computing?

Considering there has been a ton of research and development over the past few decades at least on Quantum, that gets my vote.

There has indeed been a lot of research and a quantum network has been in use for the past two years, by the US government, but so too has research been moving along with biotech. They have working computers, though, they are less powerful than an abacus at the moment. I'm split because I think quantum computers are more developed but they are far too costly and there is little evidence to suggest any decline in cost in the near future. On the other hand, biotech has the potential to be cheap because it can be grown, if it is developed more.

Tbh I haven't done much research on bioengineering honestly.
