If you want to get more stressed about it and consider the impeding dystopian future, I invite you to think about the “harvest now, decrypt later” potential reality that quantum cryptography is going to enable.
At some point, everything that we have ever assumed to be confidential and secure will be exposed and up for grabs.
It is a fascinating future, but wouldn't it imply quantum computing will be even more restricted ( either by law or pricing ) and AI hardware?
You would hope so, with regards to law & policy, but then when you consider what is happening in the current times with the AI race it doesn't feel very likely.[1]
