IBM promises 1000-qubit quantum computer—a milestone—by 2023

For 20 years scientists and engineers have been saying that “someday” they’ll build a full-fledged quantum computer able to perform useful calculations that would overwhelm any conventional supercomputer. But current machines contain just a few dozen quantum bits, or qubits, too few to do anything dazzling. Today, IBM made its aspirations more concrete by publicly announcing a “road map” for the development of its quantum computers, including the ambitious goal of building one containing 1000 qubits by 2023. IBM’s current largest quantum computer, revealed this month, contains 65 qubits.

How much does it cost?

What could a 65 qubit computer do ?

it could make universe 3D distribution maps more accurate.

We could get better weather predictions…

Design better subs….

A 1000 qubit machine is only a few years away.

Time to start saving some money for one.

Its going to be more than that i7 22 core machine.

I’ve got nothing planned for today.

Well get the damned 1000-qubit computer working then.
