Quantum Computing Startup Plans to Beat IBM to Error Correction

QuEra, a quantum computing startup, has announced plans to bring error correction to quantum computing in two years, beating IBM's timeline. The company is building on the success of the Harvard University lab's demonstration of error-tracking in similar hardware. By using neutral atom-based qubits, QuEra aims to create hardware with low error rates that will enable useful computations. Currently, quantum computing is limited by error rates, and error-corrected qubits are necessary for complex calculations. QuEra's announcement should be viewed cautiously, but it offers promising advancements in the field.

Quantum Computing Startup Quera Aims to Beat IBM in Error Correction

Quera, a quantum computing startup, has announced its plans to bring error correction to quantum computing in only two years, ahead of IBM's timeline. Quera is a spinoff of the Harvard University lab that demonstrated error-tracking using similar hardware. The company uses the same type of qubits as rival startup Atom Computing, which has already scaled up to over 1,000 qubits. While skepticism remains, Quera's focus on error-corrected qubits could be a promising development.

New Material Discovered by AI Could Reduce Lithium Use in Batteries

A new substance has been discovered using artificial intelligence (AI) and supercomputing that has the potential to reduce lithium use in batteries by up to 70%. The material was found by Microsoft and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), and has already been used to power a lightbulb. By using advanced AI and high-performance computing, the research process from identifying potential candidates to developing a working battery prototype took less than nine months. This new material could be a sustainable energy storage solution and is a major breakthrough in the lithium-ion battery industry.

US Lawmakers Introduce Legislation to Prevent Internet Bill Hikes

US lawmakers are taking action to prevent abrupt price hikes on Americans' internet bills by introducing legislation to provide additional funding for the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). The ACP offers monthly discounts on internet service for low-income households and has been widely adopted across the country. Without an extension, the ACP's budget will be exhausted by the end of April, leading to disruptions in internet access for an estimated 25 million homes. The bipartisan legislation, known as the Affordable Connectivity Program Extension Act, is supported by over 450 organizations.
