Google has announced a groundbreaking advancement in quantum computing as it unveiled its latest quantum chip called Willow. “Willow performed a standard benchmark computation in under five minutes that would take one of today’s fastest supercomputers 10 septillion years — a number that vastly exceeds the age of the Universe,” Google said in a blogpost. Google CEO Sundar Pichai said, …
In a monumental leap for science and technology, Google on Monday unveiled its next-generation quantum computing chip called Willow. The staggering speed of quantum computations aligns with the idea that quantum computers may operate by performing calculations across multiple parallel universes simultaneously, a concept first proposed by physicist David Deutsch. While this remains a theoretical notion, Willow’s astonishing capabilities lend …
