Insider Brief
IBM and the University of Chicago demonstrated a logical quantum computing experiment that achieved computations beyond leading classical simulation methods while providing verification of the results.
The researchers used encoded quantum circuits with 70 logical qubits, completing thousands of logical operations with lower effective error rates than the underlying physical qubits.
The team released the circuits and results through the Quantum Advantage Tracker to support further benchmarking and analysis of the demonstration.
Press release – IBM (NYSE: IBM) and researchers from the University of Chicago today announced a demonstration in quantum computing that achieves the fundamental criteria for quantum advantage: performing computations beyond the reach of leading classical simulation methods while providing trust that the computation returned accurate results.
