Google says it has reached a milestone known has quantum supremacy, listed below are the quantum computing milestones that led up to now.

1980 – Paul Benioff describes the first quantum mechanical mannequin of a pc, exhibiting that quantum pc systems are theoretically most likely.

1985 – David Deutsch develops the foundation of a contemporary quantum pc: a technique to mathematically tag what’s feasible on a quantum pc.

1994 – Peter Shor develops “Shor’s algorithm”, which can perhaps perhaps enable a quantum pc to factor trim numbers significant sooner than …
