Recent comments from the intelligence community indicate quantum computing could be one of the most important technology investments being made today, but the field has many worried about what might happen if others achieve it first. Quantum encryption, enabled by quantum computing, could have profound national security implications such as making adversary messages unreadable and…
A Magnetic ‘Wormhole’ That Connects Two Regions of Space Was Created in The Lab FIONA MACDONALD 10 MAR 2018 Back in 2015, researchers in Spain created a tiny magnetic wormhole for the first time ever. They used it to connect two regions of space so that a magnetic field could travel ‘invisibly’ between…
“The demonstration of a quantum processor outperforming a supercomputer would be a watershed moment.” QUANTUM UPGRADE Google’s 72-qubit quantum chip could become the first to perform a calculation impossible for traditional computers. Google Just Unveiled The World’s Most Advanced Quantum Processor by Far 72 qubits! 72 qubits! BRAD JONES, FUTURISM 7 MAR 2018 Google…
“Sometimes you overlook a cool idea, and then it’s just literally right in front of your nose” DAVID NIELD 3 MAR 2018 Quantum physics just beat classical physics again. A single quantum particle can send a two-way signal, scientists have discovered – something that’s impossible in classical physics. That means a particle can essentially send…
February 5, 2018 John Hawthorne wrote an interesting article on Quantum Computing – you can find it here: http://www.iqsdirectory.com/blog/are-practical-quantum-computers-coming-in-2018/ The article also makes a reference to this WIRED article, another good intro to Quantum Computing: Inside the weird world of quantum computers WIRED explains why we need quantum computing, how it compares to…
A flexible approach to life. DAVID NIELD 3 FEB 2018 One of the oldest and most fundamental questions in biochemistry is why the 20 amino acids that support life are all needed, when the original core of 13 would do – and quantum chemistry might have just provided us with the answer. According to new…
The intersection of quantum computing and espionage may feel like a faraway future. But in his latest novel, David Ignatius, Washington’s own John le Carré, tackles just that. The Quantum Spy, out now, revolves around a central theme of spy literature: the race for a new technology, to discover something new that, even if only…
This new way to track unobserved quantum particles could allow scientists to test old predictions in quantum mechanics. These include ideas like that a particle can exist in two places at the same time, or suggestions like telepathy in which information can be transmitted between two people without any particles traveling between them. One…
Researchers at the University of New South Wales have revealed an architectural structure that solves some of the stability issues that are facing quantum computing scientists, according to a recent report. The new architecture, which the report compared in significance to landing a man on the Moon, utilizes currently available processors to organize how each…
11 DEC 2017 Forget about today’s modest incremental advances in artificial intelligence, such as the increasing abilities of cars to drive themselves. Waiting in the wings might be a groundbreaking development: a machine that is aware of itself and its surroundings, and that could take in and process massive amounts of data in real time.…
A critical step to quantum internet. 8 DEC 2017 Scientists just took a big step towards the goal of quantum computers, and even a quantum internet to connect them, after successfully using photons to transfer quantum information between a cold atomic gas and a solid crystal. Passing data between these two “nodes” or types of…
The art and science of quantum annealing to arrive at a best of all worlds answer to difficult questions has been well understood for years (even if implementing it as a computational device took time). But that area is now being turned on its head—all for the sake of achieving more nuanced results that balance…
IBM Just Announced an Insanely Powerful 50-Qubit Quantum Computer Along with even more quantum computing records. DOM GALEON, FUTURISM 11 NOV 2017 At the IEEE Industry Summit on the Future of Computing in Washington DC on Friday, IBM announced the development of a quantum computer capable of handling 50 qubits (quantum bits). This breakthrough puts…
Quantum computing is the next big technological revolution, and it’s coming sooner than you might think. IBM unveiled its own quantum processor this past May, scientists have been experimenting with silicon-laced diamonds (and basic silicon, too) as a quantum computing substrate, Google is already looking at cloud-based solutions and Microsoft is already creating a new…
