Fears of Quantum cats 

Australia’s chief cyber security agency has announced plans to overhaul the cryptographic foundations of the internet by 2030, years ahead of other nations.

Willow gets own multiverse

Search engine outfit Google has boldly claimed that its latest quantum chip, Willow, might be tapping into parallel universes to achieve its jaw-dropping performance.

Cat is out of the box

Google scientists have emerged from their smoke-filled labs with a new quantum processor capable of solving a problem in five minutes that would have taken the world's best supercomputer 10 septillion years.

Kool for potentually dead or alive Katz

Boffins have emerged from their smoke-filled labs, claiming to have created a new type of transistor that can dissipate almost zero heat. This transistor promises to slash energy usage in future quantum computers by up to 1,000 times.

Cool for cats

Boffins working for Microsoft and Atom Computing have emerged from their smoke-filled shared lab claiming a significant breakthrough in their quest to develop fault-tolerant quantum computers that outperform classical systems.

25,000 times faster than predecessor

Quantum computing outfit D-Wage has been whipping its quantum cats into shape and lifted the kimono a new 4,400-plus-qubit quantum processing unit (QPU) named Advantage2.

Better at herding the cats

IBM has announced a series of developments to make limited but functional quantum calculations possible ahead of the much-anticipated arrival of error-corrected quantum computing.

Encryption is potentially dead and alive

Chinese boffins have used a D-Wave quantum computer to mount a successful quantum attack on widely used encryption algorithms.

Riverlane’s founder says

Quantum computing will experience its "Sputnik" breakthrough within the coming years, according to Steve Brierley, the founder of Cambridge-based Riverlane.

The cat in the PC case is both dead and alive

Microsoft and Quantinuum have won significantly in the battle against quantum error correction. Using Quantinuum's ion-trap hardware and Microsoft's fresh-off-the-press qubit visualisation system, the team ran a whopping 14,000 experiments without the cat upsetting anything.
