The Willow processor runs the first verifiable algorithm with real-world applications, marking shift from theory to practical quantum computing.

Google's Willow chip has achieved a verifiable quantum advantage, running a new algorithm 13,000 times faster than the best supercomputers. This break

The firm says it has solved a problem on a quantum processor faster than a classical computer, and is optimistic about future scientific applications.

The company's researchers demonstrated that an algorithm designed to correct quantum computing errors could run in real time on an AMD field programmable gate array, or FPGA. These chips are commonly used in data centers and can be programmed for different tasks.

Investing.com -- IBM announced on Friday that it has successfully run a key quantum computing algorithm on standard chips from Advanced Micro Devices, marking a significant step toward making quantum computers commercially viable.
