A common type of error-correcting mechanism in biology is called kinetic proofreading. For example, if errors turn up when cells are making new DNA, enzymes can cut out incorrect nucleotides. They can ...

A Google-led research team has demonstrated a surface-code logical qubit operating below the error-correction threshold, ...

These novel error-correction codes can handle quantum codes with hundreds of thousands of qubits, potentially enabling large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computing, with applications in diverse fields ...

If you’ve ever sent a text message, played a CD, or stored a file in the cloud, you’ve benefited from error correction. This revolutionary idea dates back to the ...

The company says it has cracked the code for error correction and is building a modular machine in New York state. IBM announced detailed plans today to build an ...

Researchers from Google have demonstrated a new generation of quantum computer, called Willow, which is able to run its random circuit sampling (RCS) benchmark significantly faster than a ...

On Tuesday, Microsoft made a series of announcements related to its Azure Quantum Cloud service. Among them was a demonstration of logical operations using the largest number of error-corrected qubits ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Paul-Smith Goodson is an analyst covering quantum computing and AI. Microsoft and Quantinuum quantum computing researchers just ...
