It is extremely cost prohibitive. Superconductors are what is standing in the way of quantum computing being a threat to average people. We aren’t even in the AI paradigm yet. Ai is just a parrot that needs to be trained to say what it says and is usually very inaccurate. At best it is a tool for social manipulation for people in a certain income demographic. At worst it is just digital slop. Ai is no where near sentient from my experience. Quantum could be a long way down the road, Where currency is so devalued that trillions of dollars to run attacks on individuals is just a drop in the bucket. 10 trillion dollars today is still enough to cause a serious economic downturn.

It's not just cost prohibitive. It is physically impossible. Scaling up quantum without decoherence and reversion to thermodynamics is like breaking the speed of light.
