What are the key limitations of classical computing that quantum computing addresses?
We're trying to map the real-world boundary between classical and quantum computing. In my lab, we keep hitting walls with optimization and molecular simulation problems. I need to articulate, beyond the hype, which specific intrinsic limitations of transistor-based logic are the primary drivers for investing in quantum research. This is for a grant justification focused on computational chemistry.

To add, classical computers are limited because they store information in bits—0 or 1—so they can’t naturally process superpositions or entanglement. Quantum computers, using qubits, can explore many possibilities simultaneously. This ability allows them to tackle certain problems exponentially faster than classical machines, like Shor’s algorithm for factoring or quantum simulations of molecules.
