Funding

We thank Charles W Clark, Yiwen Chu, Tom Lebrun, and Jon Pratt for comments, and Yoni Kahn and Masha Baryakhter for suggesting the relevance of the weak gravity conjecture in figure 2. Yogesh S S Patil, Lucy Yu, and Sean Frazier produced the images in figure 3. This white paper originated with a workshop held at the Joint Quantum Institute at the University of Maryland, October 28-29, 2019. This workshop was funded in part by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, through Grant GBMF6210. We also gratefully acknowledge support from the JQI (an NSF Physics Frontier Center, award number 1430094), and from JILA (an NSF PFC, award number 1734006) to run the workshop. We thank the Aspen Center for Physics for hospitality during the workshop 'Quantum Information and Systems for Fundamental Physics', where part of the writing was completed.
