Quantum computing researchers are exploring whether quantum computational advantage might be obtainable without quantum error correction. The larger one can make a quantum computer while continuing to push down error rates the more likely it is that we will find tasks at which non-error-corrected quantum computers dramatically outperform the best classical algorithms. The high gate …
Pasqal, French Quantum Computer Company, has successfully loaded over 1,000 atoms in a single shot within their quantum computing setup, a significant leap towards scalable quantum processors.

Terra Quantum is working with leading steel manufacturer POSCO Holdings (top Asian Steel company) to deploy quantum AI for optimizing steel production, specifically focusing on POSCO’s advanced blast furnaces. They will demonstrate the potential of Quantum Neural Networks to enhance efficiency, targeting tangible outcomes such as reduced emissions and energy consumption. Terra Quantum researchers were …
A new algorithm can further exploit the twin challenges of information loss and translation to mimic a quantum computer with far fewer resources than previously thought. It was previously though that quantum computers with 50-100 logical low error qubits would be able to surpass regular supercomputers. New algorithms are showing that regular computers could beat …
Infleqtion announced the next phase of its quantum computing program: Sqorpius, the world’s largest qubit array, comprising 1600 qubits. This new initiative encompasses substantial investments in both hardware and software and is dedicated to creating error-corrected logical qubits tailored for commercial applications. Alongside the announcement of Sqorpius, Infleqtion revealed significant milestones in gate fidelity, qubit …
In 2024, Quera, neutral atom quantum computer company, will beLaunching a quantum computer with ten logical qubits, unique transversal gate capability, and over 256 physical qubits. The Transversal gates are crucial in quantum computing for their ability to prevent error propagation across qubits, making them inherently error-resistant. They simplify quantum error correction by allowing errors …
QuEra Computing, the quantum computing trailblazer, today announced a bold strategic roadmap for a series of error-corrected quantum computers, starting in 2024 and culminating in a system with 100 logical error-corrected qubits. This announcement marks the ushering in of a new era in quantum computing and caps off a banner year for QuEra, which included …
DARPA support Microsoft and PsiQuantum to make utility scale quantum computers. DARPA has selected Microsoft Corporation and PsiQuantum to move to the next phase of US2QC (Underexplored Systems for Utility-Scale Quantum Computing), which recently kicked off and is expected to run through March 2025. “These researchers are working extraordinarily hard, presenting solid technology descriptions and …
Quantum computers leverage some aspects of quantum physics to make computers. They can create huge amounts of quantum states but it is also difficult to make the actual algorithms to use the abundant states. A classical (regular) computer would need more atoms than are in the entire universe to match the number of quantum stats …
