In 2012, [John Preskill] proposed the term "quantum supremacy" to describe the point where quantum computers can do things that classical computers can't, regardless of whether those tasks are useful. With that new term, [he] wanted to emphasize that this is a privileged time in the history of our planet, when information technologies based on principles of quantum physics are ascendant. 3, record 1, English, - quantum%20supremacy
