January 10, 2026, 3:40 AM EST. LAS VEGAS, Jan 9 - At CES 2026, quantum computing shifted from a fringe attraction to a crowd-drawer. In the Foundry zone at Fontainebleau, demonstrations drew standing-room audiences as quantum systems went on show. Industry executives described the moment as a potential ChatGPT moment: a breakthrough that moves from labs to broad use. Pouya Dianat, Chief Revenue Officer of Quantum Computing Inc., said progress has accelerated beyond earlier expectations. Jean-Francois Bobier of Boston Consulting Group warned that once quantum shows clear commercial value, its future will flip from uncertain to inevitable. An IBM executive, Joseph S. Broz, said the gap between capabilities and business needs has narrowed. IonQ's Ariel Braunstein cautioned adoption could outpace slower firms. Analysts expect applications in drug discovery, financial modeling, cybersecurity and more.
