Is Rigetti Computing Stock a Buy Now?

Rigetti Computing (NASDAQ: RGTI) is among the stocks benefiting from investor interest in the quantum computing field. The company's shares are up over 1,500% in the past 12 months through Aug. 27.Rigetti and other businesses in the sector are developing technology with the potential to transform industries, including medicine and artificial intelligence. Because quantum computers are powered by atomic particles, they boast computational capabilities beyond the reach of current classical computers.However, they also have shortcomings that hinder their widespread adoption. One key drawback is that errors creep into quantum computations due to the extreme difficulty of isolating and controlling quantum states. While quantum computing is inherently probabilistic (which is actually useful for many algorithms that rely on randomness), the real challenge is that environmental noise and imperfect controls corrupt these probabilities. Finding and correcting these errors -- distinguishing between intended quantum randomness and unwanted noise -- is one of the field's key issues.Continue readingWeiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei MotleyFool Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei MotleyFool
