Wave, the testnet has drawn 13,000 sign-ups and early work from six research teams, but remains an experimental environment rather than a live mainnet.

Quantum computers of the future may be closer to reality thanks to new research from Caltech and Oratomic, a Caltech-linked start-up company. Theorists and experimentalists teamed up to develop a new approach for reducing the errors that riddle today's rudimentary quantum computers.

Understanding quantum computing, from qubits science and tech breakthroughs to future quantum applications, and discovering how close we are to real-world use cases Pixabay, geralt Quantum computing is rapidly gaining attention as a revolutionary ...

There are currently about 80 companies across the world manufacturing quantum computing hardware. Because I report on quantum computing, I have had a chance to watch it grow as an industry from up close – and to hear an awful lot of sales pitches.

"I genuinely believe that quantum computing talent should be used for good," says Dr Carmen Palacios-Berraquero. The tech entrepreneur is echoing Chancellor Rachel Reeves, who recently called for "AI sovereignty" and warned artificial intelligence could be shaped by countries "whose values may differ from ours".

Charles H. Bennett and Gilles Brassard, winners of this year’s Turing Award, spent their lives touting the advantages of the quantum world
