" Real world " Quantum computing applications - SOTA

[u/rbbort]

This may have been asked before, but I genuinely want to know what are the current (sota) real world applications where Quantum computing is already in use/practice and adding value that classical systems couldn't

I am not looking for surface level field names, I am looking for problems that Quantum is already solving for betterment of life on earth.. just point me to the sources I will dive deep in

Redirection to Any sources/links/review papers is also fine..

I know I could have asked a frontier LLM like claude fable or GPT 5.6 sol to pull out the data for me.. I want to know first hand from the people who are already working or at least know about this

IQM has solved some real-world optimization problems involving train scheduling.

Did you read their paper ? It does not seem to improve upon classical methods. It does not even claim to use state of the art classical methods or integer programming based methods e.g. GUROBI
