You don't have to know how it works, but you can utilise it.

So, Michael Crichton told us.

It has already worked.

Developed by Peter Shor of Bell Labs in 1994, the factoring algorithm sparked burgeoning interest in quantum computing. Modern cryptography techniques, which rely on the fact that even the fastest supercomputers require very long times to factor large numbers, are used to encode everything from military communications to bank transactions. But a quantum computer using Shor's algorithm could factor a number several hundred digits long in a reasonably short time. This algorithm made code breaking the most important application for quantum computing.

Quantum computing, which harnesses the unusual behavior of quantum systems, offers the possibility of parallel processing on a grand scale. Unlike switches that are either fully on or fully off in today's computer chips, quantum bits can be on, off, or on and off at the same time. The availability of such superpositions,

Yes, it works but that does not mean it can predict things with 100% accuracy.

What is the time limit of short-run? One second? Four minutes? Two days? No matter how short the time is you can't predict the behaviour with 100% accuracy.

If it's 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999%, let's assume it's 100%.
