Univ. of Chicago to create first quantum supercomputer
-- Two universities, including one in Chicago, are joining forces to develop what would be the most powerful computer in the world.and the expectations are pretty super. CBS 2's Andrew Ramos explains.
Now, a new global partnership is aiming to create the first ever quantum supercomputer, which would usher in a new age of innovation. "It's really going to be able to solve problems problems that we can't even approach today," Chong said."Certain problems on a quantum scale like understanding materials of chemistry, but also UPS trucks like scheduling UPS trucks or flights on an airline."
Currently, the industry standard is roughly 430 qubits. The goal is to first reach 1,000 then 10,000 and ultimately 100,000 -- which will be a collaborative effort between both universities.
