A small mathematical revision to quantum mechanics could effectively limit the purported infinite capacities of quantum computers—if validated, that is.

They went on to show this approach could allow a quantum computer to break 256-bit elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) in 10 days while using 100 times less overhead than previously estimated. In a second paper,

An international team of scientists proved the never-before-seen molecule's exotic nature using a quantum computer, potentially ushering in new scientific opportunities.

IBM teams up with researchers to show a quantum processor’s capabilities in materials modeling.

Quantum computers promise to revolutionize whole industries by outperforming classical computers on complex calculations. They just need to be colder than the coldest natural place in the universe.

Quantum computing promises to transform our world in rapid, radical and revolutionary ways: solving in seconds problems that would take classical computers years, accelerating the discovery of new medicines,

Quantum computing could transform certain industries, but commercialization might be further off than investors think. Rigetti Computing has built some of the most accurate quantum systems to date, and yet its revenue plummeted last year.
