We’ve all heard of quantum computers, the strange, complex, outright weird technological leap some say will change life on earth.

But what's the reality of a computer built to think in that spooky, counterintuitive language of the natural world?

David Reilly spent nearly a decade leading Microsoft's quantum research in Australia before co-founding his own quantum company. He's come up with an accessible version of how these machines actually work, where the technology stands right now, and what it could mean for medicine, encryption, energy, and so much more.
