On May 7, 1981, influential physicist Richard Feynman gave a keynote speech at Caltech. Feynman opened his talk by politely rejecting the very notion of a keynote speech, instead saying that he had ...

Here, the team led by Lidar used an algorithm they modified for the quantum computer to solve a variation of "Simon's problem," an early example of quantum algorithms that can, in theory, solve a task ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Quantum computers hit a crucial milestone for error-free calculation The new record holder is a quantum computer called Jiuzhang 4.0 that makes calculations using particles of light, or photons.

Researchers at the quantum computing firm Quantinuum used a new Helios-1 quantum computer to simulate a mathematical model that has long been used to study superconductivity. These simulations are not ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Tim Bajarin covers the tech industry’s impact on PC and CE markets. Two years ago, I spent about six months in deep discussions ...
