Google’s Quantum Lab in California holds the future of computing

Google Quantum Lab, an arm of Google AI, is involved in cutting-edge research on quantum computing. Formed to attain quantum supremacy, the lab is involved in the construction of quantum processors and designing of algorithms that utilize quantum advantage.

Google made a significant breakthrough in 2019 when its 53-qubit quantum processor, Sycamore, solved one particular problem in 200 seconds, with the same task taking the most advanced supercomputers thousands of years.

This lab’s field of study includes quantum error correction, quantum machine learning, and simulating quantum systems. Google’s Quantum Lab wants to bring new powerful algorithms that will be impossible for today’s computers to solve and open up tremendous new opportunities in materials science, cryptography, and artificial intelligence. In this context, the activities of the Quantum Lab are a hopeful sign of the advent of the next generation of computing, which would bring changes to many branches of science and technology.
