IBM and Google target fault-tolerant quantum computers by 2029, promising machines that could crack encryption and ...

IBM laid out a detailed plan for a large-scale machine in June, declaring it was on track to build one by the end of the ...

Quantum computing, long seen as a distant goal, is moving closer to reality as leading tech firms outline fresh plans for building scalable machines. In June, ...

In the race to build a workable quantum computer — a dream at the intersection of advanced physics and computer science since ...

Google disclosed the results in the journal Nature on Wednesday. The achievement came after more than a decade of work at Google, including the use of its own quantum computing chip, called Sycamore.

Google said its computer using the new Willow quantum chip beat the Frontier supercomputer in running a benchmark algorithm, doing in minutes what would take Frontier ...

Google's success at achieving quantum supremacy sounds like a momentous victory. But really, it's just the first step in making this radical new type of computing useful. On Wednesday, Google ...

Google's current quantum computer operates with 70 operational qubits. For lack of a better process, the research team tested using a complex, synthetic benchmark called Random Circuit Sampling (RCS).

Google developers are confident they can build a commercial-grade quantum computer by 2029. Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced the plan during today's I/O stream, and in a blog post, quantum AI ...

Any quantum system, no matter how it's prepared (the Google team used superconducting qubits, but other quantum computers, using quantum dots or ion traps, for example, are also possible), will ...

And now Google, in collaboration with NASA and the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), says it has a quantum computer — the D-Wave 2X — that actually works.
