So, 2023 is here. Two weeks ago, before we went on holidays we published a collection of 2023 quantum predictions, now it is the time to make them happen. But in the meantime a big claim was made. A group of researchers from China claimed could break RSA-2048 with some 370 physical qubits. The community had a lot to say but you can review our official response from Moody’s here.Israel makes a bigger push with an additional $32M to their funding. US National Quantum initiative presents the supplement to their strategy after Biden signature. A spotlight on the usages of annealers (whether they are Dwave, QCI, Fujitsu or others is at the readers discretion). Riken advances on the integration of Fugaku super computer with quantum capabilities. A new study by MIT research where they improve the single-photon emission with a high-fidelity, on-demand, directional, microwave. Which is incredibly relevant for quantum networks. IBM claims is well on track on their roadmap to achieve advantage by using error mitigation by 2026, and that pairs really well with their qubit scalability plans. That also clashes with the fact that they don’t lead anymore in the amount of papers / research published (even though they say they are not interested in that anymore). Lastly, Brian demonstrates that a Quantum Computer can give us the answer to the ultimate question of Life, the Universe and Everything with a exponential speed up (given that Deep Thought could only do it in 7,5M years…).
