Quantum computing will define the 21st century. It's a once-in-a-generation, paradigm shift in computation performance ... The U.S. has long led the world in computing technologies and it already has tremendous assets and talent in quantum computing. However, it is very early days for quantum and long-term global leadership is far from assured. All of the leading industrial nations have declared quantum computing to be a strategic priority and are committing massive resources to it.  According to a World Economic Forum report, public investment in quantum computing reached $30 billion in 2022 with China leading the way.
