Abstract
A recent attempt to compute a (recursion-theoretic) noncomputable function using the quantum adiabatic algorithm is criticized and found wanting. Quantum algorithms may outperform classical algorithms in some cases, but so far they retain the classical (recursion-theoretic) notion of computability. A speculation is then offered as to where the putative power of quantum computers may come from.
