Google plans to build commercial-grade quantum computer by 2029 (https://www.thenationalnews.com/business/technology/google-plans-to-build-commercial-grade-quantum-computer-by-2029-1.1225463)

Google aims to build a commercial-grade quantum computer by 2029 that can perform error-free complex calculations in less than fractions of a second, the company said.

The company’s chief executive Sundar Pichai announced the timeline and introduced the new Google Quantum AI campus in Santa Barbara, California, at the company’s virtual annual developer conference on Tuesday.

“Quantum computing represents a fundamental shift, because it harnesses the properties of quantum mechanics and gives us the best chance of understanding the natural world,” Mr Pichai said.

Quantum computers represent a massive acceleration in computing speed and performance.

The experimental quantum computer will be much more earlier than the commercial-grade one.
