Governments and tech companies continue to pour money into quantum technology in the hopes of building a supercomputer that can work at speeds we can't yet fathom to solve big problems.

Understanding the chemical properties of a molecule is an inherently quantum problem, making quantum computers a good tool ...

Quantum computing may one day outperform classical machines in solving certain complex problems, but when and how this “quantum advantage” emerges has remained unclear. Now, researchers from Kyoto ...

Quantum computing promises to disrupt entire industries because it leverages the rules of quantum physics to perform calculations in fundamentally new ways. Unlike traditional computers that process ...

A gold superconducting quantum computer hangs against a black background. Quantum computers, like the one shown here, could someday allow chemists to solve problems that classical computers can’t.

It's a well-known fact that quantum calculations are difficult, but one would think that quantum computers would facilitate the process. In most cases, this is true. Quantum bits, or qubits, use ...

At the heart of today’s computing future lies a new kind of chip—one that could make quantum computing practical, powerful, and scalable. Scientists have been chasing this dream for decades, but one ...

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 ...

After decades spent gestating in labs, quantum computing has finally reached an inflection point between theoretical promise and practical implementation. From discoveries in pharmaceutical and ...

The Nvidia logo outside the company's offices in Shanghai, China, on Monday, Sept. 22, 2025. In the last two weeks, NVIDIA, the enabler and chief beneficiary of the AI craze, has bought into quantum ...

Quantum computers promise to revolutionize our ability to solve problems thanks to their unique properties. However, a team of researchers has just discovered a computable task that appears impossible ...
