Why do you focus on the reporting and not the actual thing.

Because the reporting is misrepresenting quantum computers by making them out to be some supercomputer, when in actuality it is nothing of the sort and there's already enough misinformation disguised as science journalism around quantum computing as it is. It makes me mad.
Further, what actual thing? Nothing in the article tells you the qubit count or any other relevant stat. Another user pointed out that it probably has 20 qubits though, which is completely useless since 20 qubits can be fully simulated on normal computers.
