What is a "quantum supercomputer"? Is it a quantum computer that has 15 instead of 5 qubits?

i am so ready for quantum to be the next dumb buzzword the tech industry forces everyone to pretend to care about. "how are you incorporating quantum into your daily work?" i'm not but it's so refreshing you asked me a new and different stupid question

Physicists just built a quantum lie detector. It works

An international team has confirmed that large quantum systems really do obey quantum mechanics. Using Bell’s test across 73 qubits, they proved the presence of genuine quantum correlations that can’t...

Great list of quantum starter packs! 👇

Christopher K. Long @christopher-k-long.bsky.social · 3d

With a long transfer from the Sahara to Fes, I finally finished going through the starter packs below. It was great to see everything you all have been working on! I like to spend some time reading through each profile, so I start to remember who's working on what. Please comment more starter packs!

A meme on how arXiv/quant-ph and scirate is currently flooded with QIP submissions. quant-ph is depicted as a city upon which three tidal waves of increasing height are collapsing. The smallest one is titled "< 8 Oct", the middle one "QIP papers 9 Oct" and the largest one "QIP papers 10 Oct".

ArXiv versions of all papers submitted to QIP are due today, and so are reviews from all subreviewers.

Wait, the first co means "commuting operator" and the second means "complement"?

Somebody should introduce a complexity class called CO and study its complement in the commuting operator model, also known as coCOco.

We remark that the co modifiers on both sides of MIPco = coRE refer to different things!

Using this tool, we uncover a surprising result:
quantum resources usually linked to bosonic advantage — non-Gaussianity and symplectic coherence — can actually make classical simulation easier in the presence of noise.
