In a four dimensional civilization(assuming the fourth dimension is time) would it be possible for lower class citizens to all share the same house at different times? in other words people would not rent their own apartments, they would rent a time slot at a communal apartment and simply commute back or forward to that time slot. Additionally could this concept also be the case for offices?

My book "Quantum Algocracy" is about social polarization. It deals with the DMA syndrome (Dualism, Manichaeism, Armageddon) theorized by the Carter center and imagines a social civilization without humans in power. Do you think that a society governed by quantum algorithms of different processors that audit each other will be able to do better than us? Like a self-driving car.

Google announced their latest quantum computing chip, 'Willow,' with Sundar Pichai stating on Twitter that 'Willow solved a standard computation in less than 5 minutes, a task that would take a leading supercomputer over 10^25 years.' My question is: can we expect this kind of computation to reach the consumer market soon? Is this the future of computing?
