Here's the citation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shor%27s_algorithm

You do need to update yourself. There are standard gates, complete computation theories, and algorithms for lots of interesting problems. Those aren't even new.

aes isn't broken by factorization of composites of prime. if the op had said rsa, sure, but they said aes (it was changed you can tell because there was never such a thing as 128bit rsa), but thanks for telling me about that "new" shor's algorithm devised in 1994.

Yes, comment edition sometimes leads to misunderstanding. But there was 128bit RSA, it was in use up to the middle of the 00's.
