Google has made a major achievement in the field of quantum computing. The company has developed an algorithm named Quantum Echoes on its Willow quantum computing chip, which is several thousand times faster than classic supercomputers. Google CEO Sundar Pichai said that this performance can also be repeated. Due to this algorithm, the discovery of medicines will be easier and faster and will provide great help to material science. Let us know about this in detail.
13,000 times faster than the most advanced supercomputer
According to the paper published in Nature Journal, Google said that the new algorithm is 13,000 times faster than the world’s most advanced supercomputer. Useful quantum technology will become available in the next five years and will change the future of medicine and material science. Sundar Pichai said that Willow chip has achieved the first verifiable quantum advantage. The Quantum Echoes algorithm running on this chip can use nuclear magnetic resonance to explain the interactions between atoms. This will make the work of drug discovery and material science easier.
Big step towards real world applications- Pichai
Pichai said that this result can be verified. This means that such results can be achieved on other quantum computers also. He said that this achievement is a big step towards real world applications of quantum computing. After this announcement by Google, the shares of its owned company Alphabet registered a rise of 2.4 percent.
What are quantum computers?
Quantum computers do calculations using small circuits like traditional computers, but they do it in parallel instead of sequence wise, due to which their speed is many times faster. Many companies have claimed to create quantum systems that outperform traditional computers, but the real challenge comes in identifying its use in real life.
