you people see that’s another buzzword? this is set up by a handful of credulous tech journalists to be a new bubble after ai bubble falters. exactly the same way when grifters jumped from crypto to ai (some with metaverse along the way)
So we should just stop development on technology if it’s too hard? Maybe stop attempting nuclear fusion as well? That has also been going on for decades.
Yes. Put researchers on it and politicians should stop using those unsure technologies as strawman against current feasible green technologies and climate friendly endeavours.
No, fusion research is just paper thin disguise for thermonuclear weapons research, so this will get funding no matter what. I mean here especially things going on in places like Z-machine, Laser Megajoule, NIF and such but not only these
Some media outlets abuse things that are happening as an reason to push a shitload of content hoping to make money from ads. This adds to words becoming buzzwords, like crypto and AI. I don’t disagree that happens, but there is something real happening too. Whether you personally use and/or like crypto and ai does not change on this having major effects on certain industries. Same goes for a lot of other buzzwords, although the metaverse could well be an example of a buzzword without having anything real beneath it, so far at least. Some might end up not being a big thing (remember the hyperloop), some are world changing (there was a time smartphone was a buzzword).
hyperloop was a fever dream cooked specifically to kill californian high speed rail, so this one worked
ah yes, major effects of crypto: it brought new innovative ways of money laundering, sanctions evasion and ransomware, and chatbots can give you psychosis and/or noninvasive lobotomy

I disagree. A viable quantum computer would be a gigantic technological breakthrough of a kind we haven’t seen in a long time.
It would. But right now there’s no guarantee it will ever work. This should be a topic for basic research not for venture capitalist fever dreams.
These things haven’t been able to factor 35 so far, despite decades of development
