Scientists from China university of science and tech produce the world fastest quantum supercomputer, that using 76 quantum bit to compute sophisticated problems.

The supercomputer, named "Jiu Zhang" (means Nine Chapter), can solve a Gaussian resampling problem in 200 seconds, today's fastest supercomputer in Top500 need about 600 million years to solve the same problem.

The quantum supercomputer demonstrated the significant advantage it enjoys over traditional computers.

The introduction to this quantum supercomputer has been published on academic journal <<Science>>, editors of Science described this as "the most advanced scientific experiment" and a great milestone.

Guys please merge this thread? There is another thread for this

this is going to change the game in AI and machine learning, once grown to mature status.

congratulations, China.
please hand over the designs to the West.
you owe us for all the goods-production patents that you stole over the years, and you also owe us a properly geo-politically balanced AI field.

This Jiu Zhang supercomputer is about 10 billion times faster than the best the US have, which is developed by google.
The problem is programmability, with miniaturisation, we can create programmable systems. It is now proven to billion times faster at solving a specific problem. I think we are on the verge of a new computing revolution.

None of the current quantum supercomputers have the capability of programmability at the moment, according to Pan's team, thats the second step.

The significance of this supercomputer is not just speed is 10 billion times faster than the closest competitor, but also, this is a different tech route, using photon as the media instead of super-conduct.

For the record, beside China the rest world only manage to put 4-5 photon bits together, whilst Pan's team put 76 photon bits now, the gap that leaped itself is a quantum one

what i'm wondering about, is when we can expect these things to hit the desktop market?

I also just realize sycamore is also problem specific and not programmable.
