Which is more likely: that Google’s benchmarking system is wrong, or that quantum computing somehow takes place across hereto unprovable alternate realities?
It’s not really a case of their benchmarking being wrong: quantum speed advantage is a real thing, the point of argument is whether that implies parallel universes or not
It could, but not because it’s borrowing processing power from all lost another universe, but because we find something out about quantum mechanics that only makes sense if parallel universes are also a thing.
The quote is stupid and should never have made it out of the lab where it was likely intended as a silly joke.

I know which one I would pick.
