“Well you know that Arvind Krishna actually has quantum. And it’s actually being used. His stock is still undervalued.

If he could get his way and quantum would come everywhere, we would be able to make it so that maybe we wouldn’t have to use that much energy, we wouldn’t be building, we wouldn’t be doing the Microsoft trade at Three Mile Island.”
