The complexity of quantum computing hardware integration is illustrated by the difficulty of connecting non-quantum electronics (like connecting a skybox to a TV), suggesting that mastering the lasers, mirrors, and wiring of quantum systems is daunting even for experienced physicists.

“[59:51] It's not easy. I mean, look look at the mess. That's I can't even connect my skybox to my TV with the wiring at the back. I don't know how it's lasers and mirrors and wires and that this is why I became a theoretical physicist because that that that would that would give me absolute nightmares.”
