Frontier LLMs are now solving quantum-computing problems that took weeks before

Frontier LLMs are now reportedly solving quantum-computing and theoretical CS problems that a researcher says used to take him weeks or months. The post frames this as a real existential shock for the field and asks how others are coping with the change.
A quoted reply adds that the point is not an arXiv paper, but a call for the quantum-information community to confront current AI capabilities sooner rather than later.
