Quantum computers promise to solve problems far beyond the reach of classical machines, from simulating new materials to transforming AI. But one key challenge stands ...
The first post-quantum cryptographic algorithms were officially released today, with more to come from ongoing public-private sector collaborations. The first series of algorithms suited for ...
Right now, quantum computers are small and error-prone compared to where they’ll likely be in a few years. Even within those limitations, however, there have been regular claims that the hardware can ...
The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has finalized a set of encryption algorithms designed to withstand cyberattacks from quantum computers. These ...
The quantum-AI convergence represents the next fundamental shift in how we process information, solve problems and create ...
The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...
Since its founding in 2017 at a Harvard Quantum Computing Lab, Zapata has maintained a commitment to scientific rigor and validation of its technology through close collaboration with leading experts ...
In a milestone that brings quantum computing tangibly closer to large-scale practical use, scientists at Oxford University Physics have demonstrated the first instance of distributed quantum computing ...
HOUSTON – (Sept. 3, 2025) – Quantum computers promise enormous computational power, but the nature of quantum states makes computation and data inherently “noisy.” Rice University computer scientists ...
