It seems like there are two separate questions here.
Steve talked about reversible gates, and suggested them as solutions to heat
wastage. But I think that doesn’t go through. I too thought of Marcus’s point
about unitary quatum gates as the obvious case of reversibility (needed for
them to f
As usual (often) I am humbled... in complement to your (EricS's) "if I

SFI had one of these for a while. (As far as I know it just sat there.)

Re Reversible Computing and Fredkin/Toffoli gates. I'm fascinated with
the apparent lack of progress in this general field.
When they spoke on this topic in 1983 (and I think Feynman referenced it

context of speculating as t

Hmmm good point! My Alexa app when I asked for music yesterday;
Me: hey Alexa play some instrumental dance music for kids.
Alexa: there is no band named either instrumental or from kids on Amazon.
My brain; I was thinking pxar or Disney.

The unitary gates of quantum computers provide a similar capability.
I had hoped that superconducting classical circuits would keep getting
developed too, but that too seems stuck. Northrop Grumman was working on it for
a while. At least now recent Supercomputing conferences have lots of spiffy
