Quantinuumhas releasedwhat it claims is the highest-performing quantum computer yet built, called System Model H2.
The computer is less prone to errors than earlier models.
“One thing our announcement highlights is that our quantum computer can do things that classical computers cannot.

This feat allows a quantum computer to explore many possible solutions simultaneously and find the optimal one faster.
Quantum computers could have vast implications for advances in many areas.
“There will always be a place for ‘ordinary’ computers,” Lipman added.

“Quantum computers won’t give us faster video games or better spreadsheets.
“Significant advances are needed in all areas of the quantum computing field to achieve this goal.”
Quantum computers won’t give us faster video games or better spreadsheets.
But researchers aremaking progress toward practical quantum computing.
For example, Quantinuum uses its H-Series quantum computers to generate quantum-computing-hardened encryption keys.

When WIll Quantum Computer Be Available?
“Advanced quantum clocks are on the cusp of commercialization,” he added.
“In the foreseeable future, quantum computers will be a ‘back-end’ infrastructure technology,” he added.
