Quantum computers are shifting from lab curiosities into real machines that can already outperform classical systems on narrow tasks, and the stakes are no longer theoretical. The technology promises ...

While it's no replacement for either computer, the new device is a powerful alternative for addressing some very practical ...

For decades, the solution to harder problems has been ‘build a bigger computer’— but ...

Quantum computers can outperform even the best classical supercomputers thanks to quantum entanglement and superposition, but even they can’t solve some problems. A new preprint study shows how ...

IonQ Inc. today detailed the terms of a transaction that will see it receive $2 billion in funding from investment firm Heights Capital. The quantum computer maker plans to raise about three quarters ...

Chicago has quickly emerged as a hub for quantum computing, with the state of Illinois and technology companies pouring millions of dollars into developing a campus to build the world’s first ...

The day when quantum computers will be able to break conventional encryption is rapidly approaching, but not all companies ...

There are currently about 80 companies across the world manufacturing quantum computing hardware. Because I report on quantum computing, I have had a chance to watch it grow as an industry from up ...
