A long-standing controversy on Quantum Annealing has been resolved using GPU-powered supercomputers. Using 2 million GPU hours at CINECA's Leonardo facility and additional resources from Luxembourg, Spain, and Italy. Their study, published in Nature, focused on the behavior of magnetic particles in a two-dimensional plane, which is crucial for optimizing quantum annealing algorithms. Classiq and QuEra Computing have announced a strategic collaboration to integrate QuEra's neutral-atom quantum computers into Classiq's quantum software platform. Classiq also launched Qmod, their high-level quantum programming language. Researchers at the University of Chicago have also made a breakthrough by combining trapped atom arrays and photonic devices, paving the way for scalable quantum systems. QCentroid and DataMarket have partnered to transform Big Data and AI applications. Quantum Transistors secured up to $19 million from the European Innovation Council to advance quantum computing on a chip. PsiQuantum, in collaboration with the state of Illinois, plans to construct the largest quantum computing facility in the US, aiming for a quantum computer with up to 1 million qubits within the next decade. QPerfect's MIMIQ 1.0, a “virtual” quantum computer aimed for experimentation and algorithm design
