If they’d just stop fooling around with AI and show the world how far ahead of everyone else IntelLabs is on quantum, the stock would be $200.

This is true, but please don't share this on public forums.
Quantum is in a hype bubble right now.
There won't be any practical application for probably 25 years if that.
How long has Intel been working on quantum? What breakthroughs better than the competition have we done?
Hey ShitTel
Just give me a stable chips please
This is the only viable long term growth outlook for intel but still likely needs a an acquisition by google or IBM
WE HAVNT INvented and gown a category in almost 40 years
Do it now and reap the gains in 203x
Stay on the same path and definition in 202x
Intel quantum efforts seem like yet another costly toy.
Although quantum is coming on fast at this point, it is still expected to ultimately exist as something that is an added capability, to handle special tasks in the datacenter, and does not replace the existing computing.
Maybe it eventually does more than that, but like a lot of other Intel toys, the Lab effort doesn't seem to have a roadmap to revenue.
One could argue that failing to develop it is akin to other missed opportunities, but only if there is some path to the effort being competitive enough to generate revenue.
Intel needs to, like yesterday, stop funding pointless projects that have no viable roadmap to market. Pretty sure Santa Tan has a list, and is checking it twice.
Gotta say.....AI is pretty sweet. I needed to do a pretty big change in some code, and sure I could spend half a day doing it...but I created a carefully worded prompt, included some of the baseline code to give it an idea of what I wanted, plugged it into the AI and bingo...it generated the new code, even ran syntax and compiler checks. I then spend half an hour reviewing it...yep...looks good...dropped it into the target and bingo..done. 1 hour instead of 8 hrs typing.
Quantum computing is great if you want a computer to give you the wrong answer 20% of the time. A normal CPU is now dealing with quantum phenomenon right now since the features are so small that effects like quantum tunneling occur.
Other companies are demonstrating their break through technologies yet Intel is keeping the best under wraps... I doubt it. If Intel had anything even slightly better than the competition they would be making undeliverables promises on a schedule that can't be met. The resulting product would be delivered late, broken, and priced too high.
I call bullsh-t on this one. Intel is still dabbling in “ silicon spin qubits” ignoring all of the new breakthrough technology in the field. Plus isn’t that a non revenue generating item that will soon get cut?
LippyBu said not to look at the stock price. Your fired!
