Where is TSM in the quantum computing game? Who will rule?

I can't see TSM not planning for the quantum computing game. Any thoughts, comments or observations welcome. Also, if not TSM, what companies will dominate quantum computing? What timeline do readers feel the quantum computing trend will follow? Will it end up being a specialized tech or a dominating one? Thanks

Good question.

Right now TSMC is still focusing on AI. TSMC was early to the AI train so they will continue to lead the charge for years to come. Quantum computing will be big, maybe not as big as AI, but it will be 10-20 years from now, my opinion. TSMC will need to see some quantum chip design starts from big customers before they start beating that drum.

Quantum computing won’t “explode” like AI or the Internet did but it will creep into importance as hardware and algorithms mature. Right now, it’s comparable to where classical computing was in the 1950s: promising, experimental, and expensive, but destined to become essential. Just my opinion of course.

In what sense?

They make other peoples stuff , so where the designers go they go no?

TSMC does platforms for specific market segments. Automotive, Mobile, HPC, etc... Quantum might be under HPC like AI or it may have it's own platform. Either way TSMC will play an important role in the quantum wave.
