Google Jumps After the Company Unveils New Quantum Computer with Mind-Boggling Speed

Bloomberg2024-12-10

Alphabet’s quantum computer needs just five minutes to solve a problem that would take supercomputers around 10 septillion years. Google’s next task: coming up with an actual use for all that ...
