Google Claims a Quantum Breakthrough That Could Change Computing

Google’s quantum computer. The company said in a paper published on Wednesday that the machine needed only a few minutes to perform a task that would take a supercomputer at least 10,000 years.

like the metal chilled to nearly 460 degrees below zero inside Google’s machine.

That's a pretty neat trick...............I don't think they'll be doing it on desktops any time soon.................

Honeywell also says it can hit pause on a quantum computation, read off the state of a qubit, and then restart the computation down a different path depending on the result.

I am not sure that Heisenberg would agree to this ...

So, how do you know it got the right answer? Or doesn’t that matter any more.
