The internet, social media, and digital technologies have completely transformed the way we establish commercial, personal ...

A qubit, or quantum bit, is not limited to just 0 or 1. Due to superposition, it can represent both simultaneously. This enables quantum computers to evaluate multiple possibilities simultaneously.

Quantum computers were first dreamed up in the 1980s. Where an ordinary computer stores information in bits, a quantum computer stores information in quantum bits—or qubits.

The new method encodes quantum information onto an antimony atom, which has eight possible states that enable data to be more safely stored than in a standard two-state qubit, or quantum bit.

Google DeepMind's AI agents set new standards in quantum error correction. Explore how AlphaQubit's neural network processes 241 qubits for groundbreaking accuracy.
