Paradoxically, reports of powerful quantum computations are motivating improvements to classical ones, making it harder for quantum machines to gain an advantage. “Most of the time when people talk ...

Quantum computers are shifting from lab curiosities into real machines that can already outperform classical systems on ...

Every online bank transfer, private message and Bitcoin transaction rests on the assumption that some math problems are ...

For quantum computers to change the game of computation, scientists need to show that the machines’ calculations are correct. Now, there’s hope. Google’s Willow quantum chip has achieved verifiable ...

The encryption protecting billions of dollars, which experts once called unbreakable, no longer works. Hackers don’t need passwords. They don’t brute-force keys. They simply walk through digital ...

Governments and technology companies are fueling an urgent, high-stakes race to develop quantum power, which promises to revolutionize- and potentially compromise - global security Quantum computing ...

Mikel Díez, Director of Quantum Computing at IBM Spain, explains how the new quantum systems will work alongside classical ones to offer new possibilities for problem-solving. The Basque city of San ...

Quantum computing promises a new generation of computers capable of solving problems hundreds of millions of times more quickly than today’s fastest supercomputers. This is done by harnessing spooky ...

The year isn't over yet, but we've already seen record-breaking quantum computers, skyrocketing levels of investment, and demonstrations of real-world benefits. In all the hype about AI it can be easy ...

IonQ and IBM are among those building quantum computers -- a new frontier. Since it went public in 2021, IonQ has approximately doubled its sales each year. IBM's established businesses allow it to ...
