​Willow Chip: Google's Quantum Computing Breakthrough

  • Google has unveiled 'Willow', a quantum computing chip that can solve complex calculations under 5 minutes, a task that would take classical supercomputers 10 septillion years (septillion= 1024).
  • Willow features 105 qubits and demonstrates unprecedented error correction capabilities, a critical challenge that has hindered quantum computing development for decades.
  • The breakthrough allows qubits to scale up exponentially, reducing computational errors as more qubits are added, a key milestone that scientists have pursued since the 1990s.
  • The 'Willow' chip marks a significant step toward practical, large-scale quantum computing, with the potential to revolutionize industries such as medicine, battery chemistry, and artificial ....
