Google's new supercomputer is ahead of others by... 47 years!
Google’s new supercomputer is actually a quantum computer and is the fastest in the world. In comparison, its closest rival will take about 47 years to carry out the same calculations Google has recently announced a significant breakthrough in the development of quantum computers, claiming to have achieved “quantum supremacy.” They assert that their quantum computer can perform super complex calculations within seconds that would take the fastest supercomputers from their rivals about 47 years to complete. IBM, their rival, argued that the task accomplished by Google’s Sycamore quantum computer was not particularly challenging and could technically be performed by a classical machine, albeit at a much slower pace. However, Google now asserts that they have developed a more powerful quantum computer that surpasses classical machines, thus achieving quantum supremacy. The Google researchers behind this achievement explain in their paper, which is published on the arXiv pre-print server, that quantum computers have the potential to perform tasks that are beyond the capabilities of classical computers.
