US firm beats Microsoft, Harvard with 50 entangled logical qubits in quantum computer | Records are tumbling in months as companies race to build fault tolerant quantum computers.


US-based startup Quantinuum has set a record for largest number of entangled logical qubits in a quantum computer.

The company’s Director of Computational Theory and Design, David Hayes, revealed this achievement at a plenary session of the Q2B conference held at Silicon Valley earlier this week. The race to build quantum computers that will replace the fastest supercomputers of the day is heating up, and companies are pumping billions of dollars to reach their first. Earlier this year, Google’s quantum computing division demonstrated a method that can make a single logical qubit which is large and becomes more error-proof as its size increases.
