Google Makes Multiverse a Reality, Really?
- Google launched Willow with a claim of exponential error reduction but critics have questioned the quantum computing chip's bold claims and possibility of parallel universes/multiverses.
- German physicist Sabine Hossenfelder said the tech giant’s claims were not true as stage-managed results might not be as impactful as projected.
- The quantum chipset Willow with 105-cubit has the potential for practical applications in areas such as drug discovery, battery designs, and fusion energy.
- Scientific experts have pointed out the grand claims in the quantum computing field may lose their lustre when conventional computing algorithms are discovered to achieve similar results.
- Multiple tech giants like Google and Microsoft are developing the lethal blend of AI and quantum to drive the next wave of AI revolution.
- China recently launched its advanced 504-qubit superconducting quantum computer Tianyan-504, which crosses the 500-qubit threshold and competes with international platforms like IBM.
- IBM has made significant progress in becoming a leader in quantum computing and AI in the quantum race.
- India is also planning for the quantum revolution and has developed the country's largest quantum computer, with 6-7 superconducting qubits, in collaboration with DRDO and TCS.
- LTIMindtree has announced a strategic collaboration with IBM to advance the quantum innovation ecosystem and create a strong industry-academia ecosystem.
- While Google's announcement was impressive, its practical implications are currently limited as applications with everyday relevance need a million qubits, and we remain far from that benchmark.
