    Google cracks a 20-year quantum computing bottleneck

    Google Quantum AI just demonstrated "magic state cultivation" on its Willow processor, slashing quantum error rates by 40x and hitting a record 99.99% logical fidelity. Creating these clean states previously ate up to 95% of a quantum machine's entire capacity. Why it matters: Turning theoretical error correction into real hardware reality brings truly practical, fault-tolerant quantum computing one giant leap closer.

    Google's Willow chip cracks quantum error correction

    Google just unveiled Willow, a state-of-the-art quantum chip that cuts errors exponentially as physical qubits scale up. It cracked a nearly 30-year challenge in quantum error correction and finished a benchmark in under five minutes that would take supercomputers 10 septillion years. Why it matters: It proves large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers are actually buildable.
