China Claims Quantum Supremacy With Computer 10 Billion Times Faster Than Google's Prototype

Google said last year it has built a computer that could perform a computation in 200 seconds that would take the fastest supercomputers 10,000 years.

Yikes!

A very limited win. It will be years before quantum computers can solve general problems. Also, to get there we need technology to advance enough to have THOUSANDS or millions of qubits not the paltry number we have now, what, 32 or so? That is the barest beginning of quantum computation.

@sonhouse
you're talking about quantum nonlocality
