Over the past year, vendor after vendor has reached the critical quantum-computing milestone where adding more qubits no longer adds a disproportionately higher amount of errors.
“For the first time, we can confidently say, the ‘zero to one’ moment has happened, and now we can look at scaling roadmaps instead of science roadmaps,” says Pranav Gokhale, vice president of quantum software at Infleqtion, which is focusing on the neutral atom approach to quantum computing.
It is similar to how fusion power reactors have been able to produce more energy than they use. Or the way a rocket hits escape velocity, says Gokhale. Infleqtion itself hit escape velocity this past December, he says, when its collaboration with Nvidia resulted in a six-fold improvement in accuracy.
