March 5, 2019 IBM’s quantum computing ambitions get exponential like Moore’s Law
Quantum computers are just weird, with data processed by qubits that can store ones and zeros at the same time. But they’re like regular “classical” computers in one obvious way: Their designers want them to run faster. Now, with machines like its Q System One, IBMhas not only proposed a convenient single number to calibrate a speedometer […]

October 12, 2017 Quantum Computing Will Change Everything, and Sooner Than You Expect
When we say an emerging technology represents a “paradigm shift,” it’s often hyperbole. In the case of quantum computers, it’s an understatement. In traditional computing—everything from PCs to ATMs to smartphones—all data is represented in bits that exist in one of two states: 0 or 1, off or on. In quantum computing, bits can be 0, […]
