Latest about Quantum Computing
IBM and Moderna have simulated the longest mRNA pattern without AI — they used a quantum computer instead
Scientists used IBM's R2 Heron quantum processor to predict the secondary protein structure of a 60-nucleotide-long mRNA sequence.
'Like a master Tetris player': Scientists invent quantum virtual machines — they'll slash turnaround times from days to hours
New quantum computing system allows multiple users to run programs simultaneously using virtual machines.
Scientists hit quantum computer error rate of 0.000015% — a world record achievement that could lead to smaller and faster machines
The record-breaking achievement could lead to practical, utility-scale quantum computers that are both smaller and faster.
Scientists achieve 'magic state' quantum computing breakthrough 20 years in the making
Scientists demonstrate a process called "magic state distillation" in logical qubits for the first time, meaning we can now build quantum computers that are both error-free and more powerful than supercomputers.
Small, room-temperature quantum computers that use light on the horizon after breakthrough, scientists say
Scientists say they’ve cracked a key challenge in scalable quantum hardware after generating an error-correcting, light-based qubit on a chip for the first time.
'Quantum AI' algorithms already outpace the fastest supercomputers, study says
Researchers have successfully demonstrated quantum speedup in kernel-based machine learning.
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.
