The chip industry is the most complex that you could imagine, and quantum computing, intrinsically, is based on some of the most complex, non-intuitively understandable math that humankind has ever discovered,

Two new executive orders set a 2028 finish line, and the fallout could reach your portfolio and your passwords.

Quantum computers are coming. Or, at least, that’s what current predictions say. These machines harness the power of quantum mechanics, the set of rules governing how physics operates at atomic and sub-atomic scales.

The point at which quantum computers outperform classical ones will arrive. The question is who controls the infrastructure when it does.

A new federal initiative to build a quantum supercomputer could transform everything from encryption to drug discovery, creating the next wave of winners and losers.

Researchers from the University of Sydney, working with IBM, have identified and quantified important factors limiting the performance of quantum computers and demonstrated ways to overcome their impact.

Advances in recent years suggest we are entering the Quantum Frontier Era. National security, science, economic competitiveness, and cybersecurity will all feel the impact.

This article is part of a package on the future of quantum computing. Read about the most promising applications of these machines here and see an illustrated field guide to qubits here. Inside a low-slung building in an office park near the southeastern ...

It’s hard to know what to make of quantum computers. On the one hand, it may very well be like where AI was five or seven years ago. And, if that’s the case, perhaps the quantum plays, many of which have fallen out of favor in recent quarters,

For much of the past two years, investors treated quantum computing as a single investment theme. Whether a company pursued trapped-ion systems, superconducting qubits, quantum annealing, or photonic architectures mattered less than the fact that it was associated with quantum computing.
