Quantum Computer Solves Impossible Problem in Just 4 Mins

Imagine solving a problem in 4 minutes that would take the fastest supercomputer billions of years. China’s Jiuzhang, a 76-qubit photon-based quantum computer, pulled off this jaw-dropping feat using Gaussian boson sampling. It counted up to 76 photons, smashing the classical record of just 5. This isn’t sci-fi—it’s real, and it’s a massive leap forward.

Developed by researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China, Jiuzhang’s breakthrough was announced in December 2020.
