Google’s secret plan for quantum computer supremacy

From Kurzweil September 2, 2016 

Google* is developing a quantum computer that it believes will outperform the world’s top supercomputers, according to an August 31New Scientist article and sourced to researchers contacted by the magazine.

Google’s ambitious goal is to achieve “quantum supremacy”— which would be achieved when “quantum devices without error correction can perform a well-defined computational task beyond the capabilities of state-of-the-art classical computers,” as the authors of an…read more
