Google’s Willow quantum computer is delivering. “Today, we’re announcing research that shows—for the first time in ...

Google has reportedly developed a quantum computer that can instantly make calculations that would take the world's most advanced supercomputers 47 years or nearly half a century to process. The ...

Within the next couple of decades, experts think quantum computers will replace the 'classical' computers at our desks and revolutionise our lives. By employing the odd effects of quantum physics, ...

Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from 1998 to 2024 and wrote about processors, digital photography, AI, quantum computing, computer science, materials science, supercomputers, drones, browsers, 3D ...

Google unveiled an experimental machine capable of tasks that a traditional supercomputer could not master in 10 septillion years. (That’s older than the universe.) Google’s quantum computing cooling ...

A new type of chip has managed a calculation in minutes which would take the world’s best conventional supercomputer 10 septillion years to complete. For context, that is ‘vastly’ longer than the ...

Google yesterday unveiled the world’s largest quantum computer processor to date. Dubbed Bristlecone, it’s a 72-qubit gate-based superconducting system that blows the previous best, IBM’s 50-qubit ...

After studying most of its servers for more than two years, Google finds memory failures are much more common than expected, and debunks some other myths, too. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from ...

Helene Martin is a “geek who gives back,” and Ian Whalley shapes some of Google’s most-used applications through computational thinking. Both will be featured speakers at the third annual Explorations ...

Google’s most advanced computer isn’t at the company’s headquarters in Mountain View, California, nor anywhere in the febrile sprawl of Silicon Valley. It’s a few hours’ drive south in Santa Barbara, ...

Google wants to hire more people with skills in computer science, data science and machine learning, and the company is turning to higher education for help fill the pipeline. A pilot program for ...
