Thought Leadership
Shortly after Majorana 1
Amazon unveiled its first processor for quantum computing on Thursday. According to the company, the chip developed under the name “Ocelot” is intended to help develop highly efficient quantum systems. The announcement comes just a week after Microsoft unveiled its own quantum chip.
Breakthrough?
Microsoft has unveiled a new quantum computer chip. According to the company, the chip, known as Majorana 1, is based on a new type of material called Topoconductor, which uses a previously unknown state of matter – neither solid nor liquid or gaseous, but a topological state.
Study by WEF and Accenture
In their latest study, the World Economic Forum and Accenture show how quantum technologies will generate an economic potential of up to 2 trillion dollars by 2035 and transform entire industries.
Study by Naoris Protocol
A recent global study by Naoris Protocol shows: Most IT directors do not believe their companies are adequately prepared for the threats posed by quantum computing. At the same time, 83 percent consider decentralized systems to be more secure than traditional centralized cybersecurity solutions.
Tap-proof communication
A milestone in quantum research: KIT has put a special fiber optic test track into operation. The 20-kilometer connection between the two campuses enables research into quantum networks and tap-proof communication.
Quantum computing
Pasqal and EDF have successfully used quantum computing for the first time to optimize smart charging systems. The 100-qubit quantum computer enables more precise forecasts for the energy requirements of electric cars.
Tangible benefits from quantum computers
Quantum computers have enormous potential to solve problems that are too complex for conventional computers, such as simulating molecules, optimizing logistics in real time or protein folding. Quantum computers are not yet fundamentally ahead of conventional computers – general quantum superiority is still a dream of the future.
Partnership
From sheet metal forming to crash simulation: BMW Group and Quantum pioneer Pasqal jointly develop applications for the vehicle production of the future.
