Fully practical quantum computers haven’t arrived yet, but the quantum computing industry is ending the year on an optimistic note. At the Q2B Silicon Valley conference in December, which brings ...

Tue, December 23, 2025 at 1:00 PM UTC Because the goal is so lofty, tracking its progress has also been difficult. To help chart a course toward truly transformative quantum technology and mark ...

For the past year, I kept bringing the same story to my editor: quantum computers are on the edge of becoming useful for scientific discovery. Of course, that has always been the goal. The idea of ...

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) -IBM announced on Wednesday it has built a new experimental quantum computing chip called Loon that demonstrates it hit a key milestone toward making useful quantum computers ...

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough by "distilling" light to eliminate the noise that prevents photonic quantum computers ...

Online data is generally pretty secure. Assuming everyone is careful with passwords and other protections, you can think of it as being locked in a vault so strong that even all the world’s ...

Jacob Benestad in front of an experimental setup in the laboratory at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen. This setup is similar to the one used during the group's experiments at the ...

Google says it is setting a timeline to migrate to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) by 2029, warning that action is needed before “a future quantum computer can break current encryption”.

Quantum computing, which leverages the probabilistic nature of quantum physics to accelerate certain types of computations exponentially, may be the next major technological revolution. While quantum ...

Quantum computers are powerful, but a practical quantum machine that’s useful for everyday tasks remains elusive. In fact, proponents of quantum computing say it could be another 10 years before there ...

Quantum computing is no longer science fiction confined to the lab. It is a new computing paradigm with the potential to solve problems beyond the reach of classical systems. From simulating complex ...

Quantum computing is coming faster than most realize.
