The IO video introducing Quantum AI campus was fantastically grating to me. There's so little to say, so little to share, about what is happening, what this is, what it's for: it's just pure marketing fluff, with the thinnest veneer of introductory technical material. 'This is some kind of chip. It goes in this cold thing we built. We're hoping to to inspire others.' Gee frigging thanks.

Tech is either esoteric or exoteric. It either is a thing for only experts to understand and use and put to use, or it is something illuminating, something shareable, is a conveyable experience. Quantum AI combines two of the most opaque, hard to understand fields to make something whose prestige in large part rests upon it being entirely indecipherable to 99.9999999% of humanity.

To which I just keep wanting to say, can we please make personal computing a thing again?
