Google's 'mind-boggling' quantum chip can perform 'impossible' tasks in five minutes that take the fastest supercomputers 10 SEPTILLION years to complete
Google has taken a major step towards creating a quantum computer, after unveiling a 'mind-boggling' quantum chip - its most powerful yet. Measuring 1.5-inch, a little larger than an After Eight mint, Willow paves the way to a useful, large-scale quantum computer Willow takes five minutes to complete tasks that would take conventional computers 10 septillion years. Hartmut Neven, quantum scientist and founder of Google's Quantum AI lab, said this new Willow chip, developed at its Santa Barbara, California lab, 'paves the way to a useful, large-scale quantum computer'. Google says: 'Our new chip demonstrates error correction and performance that paves the way to a useful, large-scale quantum computer' A cryostat refrigerator for cooling quantum computing chips is displayed at Google's Quantum AI lab in Santa Barbara, California Google CEO Sundar Pichai called Willow 'an important step in our journey to build a useful quantum computer' What is Willow? According to Google, Willow can run 105 'qubits' - the basic unit of information in quantum computing - which is more than its Sycamore chip that had 70 qubits Google Quantum AI's Hartmut Neven and Anthony Megrant examine a cryostat refrigerator for cooling quantum computing chips at Google's Quantum AI lab in Santa Barbara, November 25, 2024 What is a quantum computer?
