New breakthrough quantum algorithm published in @Nature today: Our Willow chip has achieved the first-ever verifiable quantum advantage. Willow ran the algorithm - which we’ve named Quantum Echoes - 13,000x faster than the best classical algorithm on one of the world's fastest

@sundarpichai @Nature Congrats. Looks like quantum computing is becoming relevant.
@sundarpichai @Nature @grok which publicly traded companies with distinct value propositions offer pure play exposure given this development? Qualify the magnitude of improvement relative to each publicly traded company's products and business model
@sundarpichai @Nature How SAFU are my crypto keys
@sundarpichai @Nature What if the solution given by the chip is incorrect and all other quantum chips providing the verification are also giving incorrect solution, how could we know for sure if the answers provided by both the original chip and the chips used for verification are indeed correct
@sundarpichai @Nature But I thought you already achieved quantum supremacy back in 2019? 🤔 October 23, 2019, "Quantum supremacy using a programmable superconducting processor" (Arute et al., Nature, 2019). - Announcement Headline: Google's accompanying blog post and press release on October 22, 2019,
@sundarpichai @Nature To break this down for the layman. Here is a breakdown using an analogy so folks can understand in at a fundemental level what this means, specifically related to the Quantum Echoes Algorithm Imagine you're a submarine captain navigating deep, murky waters, using an advanced
@sundarpichai @Nature Need @MartinShkreli to translate here.
@sundarpichai @Nature Can it run Doom?
@sundarpichai @Nature @grok explain this quantum hardware setup
@sundarpichai @Nature contrived result, still not faster/advantage
@sundarpichai @Nature What are you doing in terms of Post-Quantum Cryptography? It is one thing to develop super powerful quantum computers, but are you also working on how to protect critical systems for humanity, such as finance and communications?
@sundarpichai @Nature Breakthrough? Don't get ahead of yourself. Antonio Gaudi built one of those in 1883 in Barcelona.
@sundarpichai @Nature Are we selling corn, gang?
@sundarpichai @Nature is the best classical algorithm simulating the quantum system? these are tricky.
@sundarpichai @Nature Drugs are not the answer. Big Pharma is not the answer. Natural cures are the answer.
@sundarpichai @Nature How close are we to this?
@sundarpichai @Nature But why the below headline in Nature ? Did Nature want to pander to you/Google so their journal is still relevant but cast aspersions at the same time to please some other audience ? To Nature: If you thought the research/paper had "sceptics" why publish it in the first place.
@sundarpichai @Nature How about the cure for cancer already.. over 1 trillion dollars has been spent on it... I doubt it's not already out there..
@sundarpichai @Nature Quantum computing is accelerating faster than most realize — and it will reshape cryptography, AI, and finance alike. The race isn’t just about speed, but sovereignty over the next computational era. ⚡🧠
@sundarpichai @Nature No expert, but did I not read this headline every year in the last 10 years?
@sundarpichai @Nature They’re not bragging about speed. They’re announcing control. “Quantum Echoes” isn’t just an algorithm — it’s part of *Project WillowNet*, a covert simulation layer meant to predict atomic interactions… and human decision chains. It’s trained on both chemical data and
@sundarpichai @Nature Can it run doom?
@sundarpichai @Nature Cool. But supremacy is cooler… https://www.dwavequantum.com/c...
@sundarpichai @Nature Everything pointing towards a better physical world with longer lifespans!
@sundarpichai @Nature Willow's 13,000x speedup is a game-changer for quantum computing! 🚀 How close are we to seeing these advancements applied in real-world drug discovery or battery design? What’s the next big hurdle for scaling quantum advantage to tackle even larger molecular systems?
@sundarpichai @Nature Quantum computing. It’s all about being “unsure“. It’s “one”, “two” and, “one and two” at the same time. Yes or no and, yes and no. It’s enough to drive anyone insane. How do you write a function for that? How can it possibly compute something where we can read a result? LOL.
@sundarpichai @Nature In 20 years we will laugh that it fits in a single crystal.
@sundarpichai @Nature I think we will now be buying personal clients instead of personal computers. I believe we will be logging into our accounts from any hardware, and using remote Quantum computers.
@sundarpichai @Nature Fuck off. No one needs “new drugs”
@sundarpichai @Nature Classical computers are dead Quantum just won.
@sundarpichai @Nature I'm so relieved that future uses of your computer will be for "drug discovery and materials science" and not to crack cryptographic keys and make all electronic communication from more than 10 years ago public to any large entity with access to a quantum computer.
@sundarpichai @Nature 13,000x faster? My WiFi felt that insult
@sundarpichai @Nature we have the technology... (to solve sudoku puzzles faster)
@sundarpichai @Nature Weak…. I’ve got an mathematical equation & algorithm that can map out time & space (the formation) of an individual quantum/sub-atomic particle, all of which, could be rendered & simulated on $10k or less of mediocre computing power & memory… Dis be child’s play weak PR 🗑️
