What is the status of current quantum computers?
I mean, are there any working examples?
What can they calculate so far?

They have a sealed box that they claim contains a quantum computer - you can't open the box because you might collapse it.One company, D-Wave, claims to have a working quantum computer but no one seriously believes this.
The current status of quantum computers is that they are still in the early stages of development. While there have been significant advancements in recent years, they are not yet ready for widespread use.
The number of qubits a quantum computer can handle varies depending on the technology and research team. As of 2021, the largest quantum computer has 127 qubits, but most commercial quantum computers have around 50 qubits.
No, quantum computers are specialized machines that excel at solving certain types of problems, such as optimization and simulation. They are not suitable for solving all types of problems, and classical computers are still better for many tasks.
The development of quantum computers is still in its early stages, and they are not yet able to outperform classical computers in most tasks. However, there have been significant advancements in recent years, and it is expected that quantum computers will eventually surpass classical computers in certain applications.
It is difficult to predict when quantum computers will be available to the general public. While some companies have released cloud-based quantum computing services, it may still be a few years before individuals have access to their own personal quantum computers.
