A quantum processor created, which is 1,5 billion times faster than the IBM supercomputer

16
If you believe the message of the British publication Financial Times, then humanity is on the verge of another revolution in the field of computing equipment.





The publication, citing Google’s short report on the website of the United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), reported that American specialists managed to create the world's most powerful quantum computer.

The power of the computer created by Google is such that it is one and a half billion times greater than the power of the Summit, the fastest supercomputer created by IBM.

In order for the reader to visualize this, of course, cyclopean difference in the capabilities of the two computers, it’s enough to say that Google’s computer takes 10 minutes and 3 seconds to make calculations that would take 20 years at the Summit.

The publication notes that today the novelty can do just one technical calculation at the same time, however, according to the developers, the result of their work has become "an important milestone on the way to a full-scale quantum computing process."

According to the publication, Google declined to comment on this development, which carried out the first calculation on a quantum processor.

    50 to 50% - either lie or not.

      There is no quantum computer, there are unfinished processors. Well, the fact that 1,5 billion times this is nonsense. Most likely, they slipped some small and monotonous task to issue some parrots.

        Well, if the Americans, then of course they lie, there is no other option, but if it had been announced on Russia 1 or NTV, it would have been true.

          Well, in the West a lot rests on buy-sell, so lying to attract investors is not a lie but marketing). And in Russia, they don’t know how to marketing 1, therefore P1’s confidence in Russian promotion is many times greater. At least for me.

          What is the problem - wait a few days, everything will come up.
          But in fact this does not happen. Well, for example, during the war, suddenly someone releases something like the MiG-29 or F-16. Really? Not. There are no such breakthroughs; life is not a fantastic story about Nautilus or a hyperboloid. By the way, the hyperboloid was never created, although the laser is already 60 years old

            releases something like MiG-29 or F-16. Really?

            - take an interest so for general development how many technical breakthroughs during the Second World War were made by the Germans i.e. for 5 to 6 years.

              I actually know. Only a small clarification - almost all that they did, a little earlier or a little later, was with the allies. The only exception is FAU-2, here they have come off for at least 5 years.

          My friend, about five years ago in the USA, Lockheed Martin in particular stated that they had invented and had already built a thermonuclear rector, and even a compact one. What they say in the near future this device will turn the world around, they are ahead of the rest. Of course, they laughed at them in narrow circles, but the majority believed and trumpeted the whole world. Well, where is at least a scientific work on this subject, let alone a product? They also promised to make hypersound in 2-3 years, for 30-40 years they couldn’t, but here they promised to do it for you in a couple of years ...

    Apparently, the first to invent a quantum computer will become the master of the world.

    Boxes are similar to KC boxes in which there were 50 such KCs. Pepelats at one KC among nebulae and planets. Apparently the whole principle is stolen from Pepelats.

    Of course, the Omerians lie without a twinge of conscience. The Russians will be the first to make a quantum computer.

    A quantum computer is a real artificial intelligence, which means, if not weapons, then robots.

    What progress has come to, unprecedented miracles ...
    Robots inject, not a man!

    A 50-qubit quantum computer has been created in Russia.
    If we make a figurative comparison and determine the place of development, using the existing analogies with what is in computing now, and in particular in the processor series, then this is a controller. At the same time, Russia is ahead of all market representatives and all countries in this direction. This message is a fake, in order to receive particles of information from those who are in the subject and can know anything about it and "dump", as an argument, a technique that has long been adopted by the country - the brain stealer of the whole world (Worldwide - a beggar's shirt). And the fact that computations in a quantum computer follow different laws than in modern processors is a fact, read the primary sources on the issue, and, therefore, the speed of obtaining the result is completely different, which is what is written in the article.

    Quantum physics exists! Hallelujah!
