Mind-blowing bit: "Willow’s performance on this benchmark is astonishing: It performed a computation in under five minutes that would take one of today’s fastest supercomputers 10 septillion years. If you want to write it out, it’s 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years. This mind-boggling number exceeds known timescales in physics and vastly exceeds the age of the universe. It lends credence to the notion that quantum computation occurs in many parallel universes" Would be interesting to learn how versatile it is. Is it more adopted to one use case or could it in the clos3 future eg break SHA256 https://youtu.be/W7ppd_RY-UE?si=Gi7MgLN1GM0aGmxi launch vid This stuff is gonna have a serious marketing problem. I didn‘t understand anything the guy said there Lol, couldn't they just use Gemini and ask it to ELI5 this video before they share it. Here's Vitalik's take on quantum computing & its potential impact on crypto: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Vitalik-on-quantum-computing?index=0x675ffa9df5fe53c2398645cfbf70439fe55cf9237e5265c08c1e06c2526226194f241ec6 | |
