Researchers at NIST have created a programmable, 2-qubit quantum processor.
Mr. Hanneke suggests that while this is just the first 2-qubit processor, one could combine many such processors by linking them together.
Qubits, are roughly similar to the ‘bits’ used in traditional computing, except that qubits can be both 1 & 0 at the same time. The NIST [...]
