quantum information 'speed limit'
#1
I read the following article regarding the quantum information 'speed limit':

http://phys.org/news/2015-04-team-tighte...limit.html

Here's the paper:

http://arxiv.org/pdf/1410.3466v1.pdf

What the article on phys.org doesn't mention is, whether or not quantum computers are still superior to classical computers for certain computational tasks not in theory but in practice. Also does this result have any implications for the OA universe and the computational abilities of the archai?

Re implications for OA: not particularly. Although the we occasionally imply that quantum computing plays a role in OA computronium, the lack of RL information in this area has led us to describe computational performance entirely in classical terms. We do describe W-brains using quantum computations mediated by wormhole to improve performance, but don't specify how much.
