Willow: Has Google solved a fundamental problem in quantum computing?
In this Science segment, we take a closer look at Google’s announcement that it has solved a major problem in quantum computing with a new chip with almost unimaginable speeds. The chip, nicknamed Willow, ran the benchmark test in less than five minutes, whereas today’s fastest supercomputers would take billions of years. So what exactly is the quantum revolution and what is it poised to change in our world? FRANCE 24’s Julia Sieger tells us more.
