🔥 Google launches the Willow quantum computer chip

Willow, the quantum computer chip recently announced by Google, has the ability to solve problems that would take supercomputers 10 billion years in less than 5 minutes. This chip marks a significant advancement in reducing quantum errors and scaling qubits, offering potential practical applications in medicine, energy, and battery technology.

Google's launch of the Willow quantum chip has raised concerns that computers capable of decryption could lead to user funds being stolen in large amounts and at rapid speeds.

However, experts estimate that 13 million qubits are needed to decrypt Bitcoin within 24 hours. Therefore, Willow with its 105 qubits is still not a threat to cryptographic encryption, including cryptocurrencies.

Google is optimistic that the Willow chip generation will help them achieve their goal of bringing quantum computing into practical applications, surpassing the capabilities of classical computers.

Though still in the early stages, scientists believe that ultra-fast quantum computers will eventually drive innovation in many fields in the future. #Google #chip
