Summary:
It looks like the Chinese have some way to go to. Advances in quantum computers are going at double exponential growth, of which there is nothing like that in nature. I guess the thing is designing itself, and as it gets more clever at it, it gets even faster at doing it, and so on.Instead if 0's and 1's, each state can be a probability of being both noughts and ones at once, greatly increasing the speed at which a quantum computer can work.The science is getting spooky now, so let's hope we advance spiritually along with it, otherwise some people could end up with too much power and wreck it for everyone else. Google is close to realising a practical quantum computer for the first time after making a major discovery with the revolutionary form of computing. Hartmut Neven, director of

Google is close to realising a practical quantum computer for the first time after making a major discovery with the revolutionary form of computing.
Hartmut Neven, director of Google’s Quantum Artificial Intelligence Lab, revealed to Quanta magazine that his lab’s most advanced quantum processor was improving at a rate far beyond what they had previously thought possible.
The revelation means the tech giant may be just months away from achieving what is known as quantum supremacy, whereby quantum computers are able to solve problems that classical computers practically cannot.
