Alexa von Tobel is fully aware that her big bet on quantum computing may never pay off. “The risk of being too early is a real risk,” she says. She’s speaking to me via Zoom from the New York City ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — In 2019, Google claimed it was the first to demonstrate a quantum computer performing a calculation beyond the abilities of today’s most powerful supercomputers. But most of the ...

Taiwan has quietly crossed a threshold that many larger powers are still struggling to reach, unveiling a 20-qubit superconducting quantum computer designed, fabricated, and integrated entirely on its ...

London-based Quantum Motion Technologies Ltd. announced today it has delivered the industry’s first quantum computer built using traditional semiconductor chipmaking processes, the same technology ...

Designed to accelerate advances in medicine and other fields, the tech giant’s quantum algorithm runs 13,000 times as fast as software written for a traditional supercomputer. A quantum computer at ...

Researchers from the University of Waterloo's Faculty of Science and the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) are prioritizing collaboration over competition to advance quantum computer development ...

Like their conventional counterparts, quantum computers can also break down. They can sometimes lose the atoms they manipulate to function, which can stop calculations dead in their tracks. But ...

Quantinuum has unveiled a third-generation quantum computer that could be easier to scale up than rival approaches. The US- and UK-based company Quantinuum today ...

Physicist Jay Gambetta, at IBM’s lab in Yorktown Heights, New York, explains how microwaves orchestrate a solution on a quantum chip: “Think of each qubit as a line in music. You’re creating notes.” ...

Taiwan has taken a significant step forward in quantum computing development. On January 29, 2026, Academia Sinica—the island's premier national research institution—announced the successful ...
