The new chip, which even wow’d Tesla CEO Elon Musk, can complete a complex computation in five minutes that would take the most powerful supercomputer 10 septillion years more than the estimated age of the universe, wrote Hartmut Neven.Google captivated the tech world Monday with Willow, a new quantum chip that outperformed even the world’s best supercomputer on an advanced test, and experts say this week’s revelations are just the start of a new phase of cutting-edge computing. Google researchers were also able to prove for the first time that the chip’s errors did not increase proportionately as the number of qubits, the basic information processing unit in a quantum computer, rises. Does a human being stand a chance in computer computations ?
