Google's new 105-qubit 'Willow' quantum processor has surpassed a key error-correction threshold first proposed in 1995 — with errors now reducing exponentially as you scale up quantum machines.

Google's new quantum chip, Willow, showed that it can outperform the best supercomputers in some cases, but experts say that using quantum computers for practical uses is still years away. Google captivated the tech world Monday with Willow,

In 2019, Google previously did a quantum computation in 200 seconds that would have taken the fastest supercomputer at that time 10,000 years. But IBM dismissed its claims, arguing that a classical computer could do the same calculation with greater "fidelity" in 2.5 days and argued that "quantum supremacy" had yet to be achieved.

Google unveiled an experimental machine capable of tasks that a traditional supercomputer could not master in 10 septillion years. (That’s older than the universe.)

Google has announced its latest quantum processor, dubbed Willow, and it shames the best supercomputers in some benchmarks.

Shares of Google parent Alphabet soared as much as 6% on Tuesday after the company teased a major breakthrough with its new quantum computing chip “Willow.”

A new, state-of-the-art quantum chip from Google (GOOGL) has cracked the code on an almost three-decade-long problem, according to the company.

Google's recent unveiling of its quantum processor, Willow, is not just a technological breakthrough but appears to be a big moonshot jump into the future of computing.

Quantum computing represents massive opportunities if the company involved can be the first to market with a feasible device. Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) seems to be on that track, as a chip produced by its Google subsidiary just posted an unbelievable score on a benchmark test.

Google has reached an important milestone with its newest supercomputer, Willow, capable of performing incredibly complex tasks in mere minutes.

Cat is out of the box Google scientists have emerged from their smoke-filled labs with a new quantum processor capable of solving a problem in five minutes that would have taken the world's best supercomputer 10 septillion years.
