Who needs qubits? Factoring algorithm run on a probabilistic computer It shares some features with quantum annealers, but it's easier to build and operate.

In a probabilistic programming language, the heavy lifting is done by the inference algorithm -- the algorithm that continuously readjusts probabilities on the basis of new pieces of training data.
