Chapter 233 Quantum Race

"Yes, the number of qubits of the Osprey is increasing too fast. It only takes 30 seconds to solve the entire set of quantum random circuit sampling tasks. This task is enough for supercomputing for 100 years."

"It's terrible. IBM has once again achieved quantum supremacy. The number of qubits in their previous generation of quantum computers has reached 127. Our latest superconducting quantum computer only has more than 60 qubits."

Like the previous generation, the quantum computer launched by IBM this time is still a superconducting quantum computer, which belongs to the programmable quantum computer.

In addition to efficient computing speed, the fidelity of the double-bit gate of "Osprey" has also reached 98%.

Such data are enough to shock the whole world.

Somewhat ironically, in the face of the news from the United States, Chinese netizens did not have any doubts.

This time, no one said that quantum computers are a scam, that IBM is a liar or something.

Even IBM didn't reveal much beyond releasing some basic data about the Osprey.

Everyone generally expressed affirmation of this result.

"This time IBM's quantum computer is closer to practicality. I don't know when China will be able to create a quantum computer of this level."

"There is still a gap of several years between us and the United States in terms of quantum computers. Now it seems that the gap will become wider and wider."

"Yes, we are far behind in terms of scientific research environment and scientific research resources, let alone talents. Those who stay in China cannot receive the best education. Those who go abroad to be gold-plated, many of them will not come back. It’s a vicious circle.”

They didn't know that in the same generation of quantum computers, Huaxia was already ahead.

After Han Shubin got the news, he immediately held an emergency meeting with the project team and reported upwards.

At this time, the sea island quantum computer has completed all testing and assembly work, and has fully met the conditions for use.

Only after formal approval can it be announced to the public.

After receiving the report from Han Shubin, the internal team decided to give special approval to the island plan.

In this case, the island quantum computer can be released directly to the outside world.

In the field of technology, confidentiality and disclosure have never been static.

Confidential projects will be made public without hesitation when they need to be made public.

Of course, disclosure does not mean that all the details are fully disclosed, but only part of the information will be revealed according to the purpose.

The day after IBM released the "Osprey" quantum computer.

A number of official media in Huaxia released the news of the successful development of the "Sea Island" quantum computer.

Once news like this itself is announced, it will definitely be a hot topic of discussion around the world.

What's more, I chose such a day again.

After seeing this news, Huaxia's netizens unanimously started discussing this topic.

"Big news! Our new generation of quantum computers in Huaxia has also been developed! The number of qubits has reached a terrifying 1122! It is more than twice the number of qubits than the Osprey released by IBM yesterday!"

"It also takes only 3 seconds to solve the whole set of quantum random circuit sampling tasks! This speed is 10 times that of the Osprey!"

"And in terms of the fidelity of single-qubit and double-qubit, our island is higher than that of Osprey! This means that our quantum computer is more stable!"

"Our Huaxia is finally arrogant! I don't know which company's product this is from. I really didn't know that Huaxia has an information technology company that is better than IBM."

"This is obviously aimed at the news released by the Osprey yesterday, and it was released today to slap them in the face. It is estimated that our research and development has been completed long ago. As long as they announce it, we will immediately announce a stronger one."

Except for these excited netizens.

There are also some netizens who express doubts that we can build such a quantum computer.

"Can we really build such a powerful quantum computer? Why are there no pictures or videos in the news, only a few lines of text? Is there something wrong with it?"

"This thing, I feel that if the specific information is not released, no one will know whether it is true or false."

"It's not just a product under research and development, is it? It always feels a bit too sudden. Our previous generation of quantum computers only had more than 60 qubits, and this has increased by more than ten times."

In the United States, some people feel that this is almost impossible.

It's not just some ordinary people who make such doubts, but some professionals analyze the possibility of this matter from different angles.

"As far as I know, China's previous generation of quantum computers only had more than 60 qubits. It is basically impossible for the new generation to increase the number of qubits by more than ten times. It is not just a matter of pure quantum chip technology. , There is also a great test for other supporting technologies.”

"When the number of qubits is increased, the fidelity of the qubits will definitely decrease. In this way, the entire quantum computer cannot complete the work normally at all."

"In other words, even if the calculation speed is fast, the calculations are all wrong results. Such a quantum computer is meaningless."

"Unless, they really achieved leapfrog improvements in multiple technologies in a short period of time. But the possibility of this is really slim."

Some doubts raised based on personal feelings may not have so much credibility.

But if it is said that the doubt is justified, it will definitely be more convincing.

After seeing these news, not only foreign netizens, but even domestic netizens have more doubts about the island quantum computer.

Indeed, it is very normal to have such doubts when such a large technological leap is suddenly realized without seeing detailed credentials.

In this regard, Han Shubin and others did not rush to respond.

In order to resolve these doubts, it is necessary to further release some detailed information.

Under unnecessary circumstances, it is not possible to play so many hole cards at once.

But within a few days.

In the United States, IBM Corporation has released a new message.

This time, it is not just as simple as announcing the various parameters of the Osprey.

Instead, some videos of the Osprey carrying out the test work were released.

In the video, the "Osprey" quantum computer is performing calculations on the quantum random circuit sampling task.

At the same time, the timer next to it is also recording the time.
