Google unveils revolutionary chip that changes the future of quantum computing

Google has taken a major step towards the practical application of quantum computing. Thanks to a new generation of chip called Willow, its quantum team has solved a computational problem in just five minutes, a task that would take a conventional computer billions of years. This milestone hints at the potential of quantum computing to one day overcome the limitations of current technology.

Quantum computing: the future of computing

Companies such as Google, Microsoft and IBM have been working for years to develop quantum computers because they promise speeds far beyond the capabilities of today's most powerful systems. Although the math problem solved by Google's Santa Barbara lab has no commercial application yet, the company hopes that quantum computers will one day help solve complex problems in medicine, chemistry or artificial intelligence.
