World's 1st fault-tolerant quantum computer launching this year ahead of a 10,000-qubit machine in 2026
QuEra has dramatically reduced the error rate in qubits — with its first commercially available machine using this technology launching with 256 physical qubits and 10 logical qubits.
QuEra plans to launch several quantum computers in the coming years, starting with a 30-logical-qubit, 3,000 physical qubit machine coming out in 2025. Its monster, a machine with more than 10,000 physical qubits and 100 logical qubits, is scheduled for 2026. "At 100 logical qubits, the [2026] machine can perform correct calculations that exceed the capability of today’s supercomputers,"

Machine = 256 qubits. Title = "Ahead of a 10,000-qubit machine!"
Ahead, like before.
Yeah, and it is misleading nonsense. "I'm releasing this totally under powered crap, but to hype it up let me say it is preceding something amazing."
I don't disagree
interesting. links for the uninformed?
From what I've read a QC is essentially a glorified analog computer.
They send in EMF wave signals (for example microwaves) and get wave signals out.
