Millions of qubits on a single quantum processor now possible after cryogenic breakthrough
Scientists in Australia have developed a quantum control chip that removes a key obstacle to getting qubits into practical, real-world computing systems.
Breakthrough quantum computer could solve problems 200 times faster than a supercomputer
Scientists have built a compact physical qubit with built-in error correction, and now say it could be scaled into a 1,000-qubit machine that is small enough to fit inside a data center. They plan to release this machine in 2031.
Microsoft breakthrough could reduce errors in quantum computers by 1,000 times
Microsoft scientists developed a 4D geometric coding method that reduces errors 1,000-fold in quantum computers.
IBM's monster 10,000-qubit quantum computer coming in 2029 after science behind fault-tolerenance 'solved'
The quantum computer, called Starling, will use 200 logical qubits — and IBM plans to follow this up with a 2,000-logical-qubit machine in 2033
Alan Turing's seminal papers, almost destroyed by a shredder, head to auction
The trove of papers from pioneering computer scientist Alan Turing was discovered in a loft.
China begins building AI supercomputer in space
China has launched the first cluster of satellites for a planned AI supercomputer array. The first-of-its-kind array will enable scientists to perform in-orbit data processing.
Scientists connect two quantum processors using existing fiber optic cables
Scientists have connected two quantum computers, paving the way for distributed quantum computing, quantum supercomputers and a quantum internet.
What is exascale computing?
Exascale computing can process over a quintillion operations every second — enabling supercomputers to perform complex simulations that were previously impossible. But how does it work?
