Quantum Computers Not 'Supreme' Against Classical Systems, IBM Exec Says
"The breadth and depth of the industries leveraging quantum will continue to grow," says Director of IBM Research India Gargi Dasgupta.
Quantum computers complement traditional computing machines and will not take over classical computers, says Gargi Dasgupta, director of IBM Research India.
"Quantum computers are not 'supreme' against classical computers because of a laboratory experiment designed to essentially [and almost certainly exclusively] implement one very specific quantum sampling procedure with no practical applications," Dasgupta says.
Last year, IBM said it will unveil 1,121-qubit quantum computer by 2023. Prior to that, IBM will release the 433-qubit Osprey processor and the 121-qubit Eagle chip.
"The 1,121-qubit Condor chip is the inflection point for lower-noise qubits. By 2023, its physically smaller qubits, with on-chip isolators and signal amplifiers and multiple nodes, will have scaled to deliver the capability of quantum advantage," Dasgupta says.
