Enabled by the introduction of its Willow quantum chip last year, Google today claims it's conducted breakthrough research that confirms it can create real-world applications for quantum computers.

Advances in quantum computing mean current encryption methods like RSA and ECC could become obsolete, putting sensitive data at risk of decryption by powerful quantum machines. ‘Extraordinary’: Hamas ...

Researchers at Google Quantum AI have used their Willow quantum computer to help interpret data from Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, a mainstay of chemistry and biology research. The ...

Designed to accelerate advances in medicine and other fields, the tech giant’s quantum algorithm runs 13,000 times as fast as software written for a traditional supercomputer. A quantum computer at ...

The research team working towards quantum computing at Google Quantum AI announced a major step forward this week in the journal Nature. Thanks to Willow, a quantum chip that features a 105-qubit ...

Quantum computing may not be in Buffett's wheelhouse. But he owns a stake in a quantum computing stock anyway. Warren Buffett has spoken publicly about his disdain for cryptocurrencies. He's talked ...

Quantum computers are still in their infancy. Presently limited to 100 or so error-prone qubits, the quantum equivalents to classical bits, they are far from supreme calculating machines that are ...

Google has demonstrated a 13,000 times speedup for the Quantum Echoes algorithm using its Willow quantum chip. The feat is repeatable, according to the company, and it paves the way toward real-world ...

Google has taken a decisive step towards practical quantum computers. A research team from Google Quantum AI has reported the first “verifiable quantum advantage”—in other words, a measurable ...

It’s been a wild 24 hours for the stock prices of America’s “big four” publicly traded quantum computing companies, which include D-Wave, IonQ, Quantum Computing Inc., and Rigetti. Yesterday, all four ...
