Quantum Leap or Costly Fad?
FO Take · Score 35

Another week, another nation flexing its technological muscle. China’s new sea-skimming quantum vehicle may seem impressive, but let’s be honest, it’s likely a massive financial drain with limited practical application.

These vanity projects rarely deliver on their grand promises.
