Google has introduced a groundbreaking quantum chip named ‘Willow’, which can solve problems in just five minutes that would take classical supercomputers trillions of years. Despite the chip’s significant advancements, experts caution that it remains experimental and a practical quantum computer is still years away. The chip holds promise for complex processes like drug development but also raises concerns about potential threats to current encryption systems. CEO of Google Quantum AI, Tzarina Tsao, emphasized ongoing collaboration with experts to address future cryptography standards.
