That's awesome, is there somewhere we can read it?

There is a reignited debate in quantum physics right now as to where the resources are coming from quantum computers achieving calculations that would take a classical super computer computer many septilion years to compute. The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics and how superposition works, which basically states superposition is a trick of the maths and probabilities was the most popular but now with Googles Willow computer, The Many Worlds interpretation is gaining serious real world... hmm, lets call it testing, something that would be thought impossible to achieve. It's for now only a hint, nothing concrete but it's the best hint in one hundred years.

I've seen this being discussed in some pop science circles but serious physicists would tell you that quantum computers working or not has no bearing whatsoever to what interpretation of quantum mechanics is correct.
Most of them, by definition, are empirically equivalent by design and almost unfalsiable in that regard.

Almost. They don't know is the issue, neither do the physicists and when science hit a moment like this it is exciting, same as web breaking what's known, the last two years have shown that we still aren't even close to knowing what we don't know, from Webs images to how far LLMs can go by just scaling up. I have faith here, this is the first actual door opening in particle physics since the mid point of the last century and no, I don't think the Higgs was exciting nor do I think anything to do with particle accelerators as anything less that a waste of time, minds and resources. There is something here, I can smell it.

THAT is the kind of technology worth investing in, not AI.

What we need is testing exotic scenarios (e.g., can you observe macroscopic superpositions?), but to my knowledge no one has proposed a viable experiment yet. We'll get there someday, but that won't be settled by quantum hardware, even if it scales to millions of qubits.
What it can get us is tremendous advances in material science and protein folding. I was once very skeptical of them, but now I think we'll see some viable quantum computers in the early 2030s, probably around the same time as the first generalist artificial intelligences. Exciting days ahead.

Exciting days is an understatement. Oh, and it's difficult to devise an experiment cause these things are such small scale, it would be easier and take less time to get to the edge of the known universe by 400,000 time than it would be to zoom into the planck length, the smallest proposed scale (apparently backed by math but I don't believe it). At at sub atomic scales the best that can be done is particle accelerators and these only show an instance of a shadow of what is happening, not even close to the true story.
