I thought that the qubits of a quantum computer had to be extremely adiabatic with respect to the surrounding environment. How can that be achieved in the chip format that your video shows?

@Mp57navy I agree. I hate to say it, but we seem to be ending up with a world composed of only film majors and lawyers. Which reminds me of a story that I once heard about the introduction of portable transistor-based radios. Back in the day, the advertising for portable transistor radios would prominently indicate the count of transistors inside the radio. Apparently, the average RUBE thought that, the more transistors inside, the better the radio. AS A RESULT, manufacturers used to put a whole bunch of additional NON-ESSENTIAL transistors inside of such radios, just to increase (??) the perceived "value" of the radio. It was all just a marketing ploy! Anyways, here in the present, it's beginning to sound like they are once again pulling the exact same scam, only this time, they are doing it with qubits instead of transistors. Talk about history repeating itself! What did W. C. Fields once say? Was it... "There's a sucker born every minute!!" ???
