Google hopes to be able to build commercial quantum computers by 2029

As Google stated in a blog post, Google's goal is to have a useful commercial quantum computer for debugging by the end of the century.

The research giant hopes that the technology will help solve many important problems, such as the world's nutrition, climate change and the development of better medicines.

To boost the development of this technology, Google unveiled a new artificial intelligence headquarters in Santa Barbara that includes a quantum data center, hardware research laboratories and manufacturing facilities for quantum processor chips.

According to a Wall Street Journal report, Google will spend billions of dollars developing technology over the next decade.

The goal stated at the annual Google Developer Conference is a year and a half after the company announced that it had achieved quantitative edge. This is a milestone as quantum computers perform calculations that conventional computers cannot.

According to Google, its quantum computer can perform calculations in 200 seconds, while conventional supercomputers take 10,000 years or more.

However, the competitors vying to build quantum computers are skeptical of the so-called progress Google has made.

IBM was less than 10,000 years old at the time, but it believed its traditional supercomputer could do the job in 2.5 days or less.

According to Google, this additional processing power could be useful in accurately simulating particles and the natural world.

This could help us design better batteries, make more carbon-efficient fertilizers, or create more targeted drugs, as quantum computers can run simulations before companies invest in building prototypes in the real world.

Google also predicts that quantum computers will reap major benefits in the development of artificial intelligence.

Despite claims that it has reached the stage of quantum supremacy, Google makes clear that there is still a long way to go to make these computers useful.

Although the current quantum computer contains fewer than 100 qubits, Google's target is a machine with a million qubits.

First, Google needs to reduce the errors caused by qubits, so it can consider making 1,000 physical qubits together into a single logical qubit.

This laid the foundation for quantum transistors, and quantum transistors are considered the basis for quantum computers of the future.

Despite the challenges ahead, Google is optimistic about its opportunities. It is at a turning point, and we now have a large part of our confidence and know how to implement the Road Map.
