Google’s recent announcement of its groundbreaking quantum computing chip, Willow, sent ripples not only through the tech world but also into the realm of theoretical physics. While the chip’s speed and reliability improvements are remarkable in themselves,

Quantum chips like Willow operate on a much smaller scale. The qubits that make up these high powered chips are roughly the size of an atom, and operate via the rules of quantum mechanics. The chips pack a computing punch at a miniscule level and with potentially better energy efficiency than supercomputers, but they’re also limited in their uses.

Google says their researchers developed a new chip, "Willow," they say overcomes a main hurdle in quantum computing.

Google has made an eyebrow-raising claim, arguing that its new uber-powerful quantum computer suggests we live inside a multiverse. The search giant recently unveiled a new quantum computer chip, dubbed Willow,

Alphabet’s sagging stock has been primed for any good news, but quantum computing’s payoff is years away at best.

Through a newly unveiled quantum chip called Willow, Google engineers have passed a significant milestone in error handling. Specifically, they've been able to keep a single logical qubit stable enough so errors occur maybe once every hour,
