The United States, which has taken several actions to hinder China’s high tech and deep tech sectors, now may be considering curbs to its quantum industry, several Asian and U.S. media outlets are reporting. Citing security reasons, the U.S. may implement an expert ban on technology critical to artificial intelligence and quantum computing to China. […]

Researchers Say Cool Control May Make Quantum Computing More Feasible

Trapped Electron

Insider Brief Researchers in Japan found a way to cool down and measure the motion of an electron levitated in a vacuum, or a trapped electron, making quantum computing more feasible. The researchers focused on included an electron trapped in a vacuum called a Paul trap interacting with superconducting circuits and a trapped ion. Next […]

TQI Exclusive: Atom Computing Is Laser Focused on Scalable Quantum Computers

Quantum computers are built on uncertainty. Quantum computing companies must be built on focus. Distractions are everywhere for leaders trying to steer their companies in a rapidly emerging industry during an extremely uncertain – if not perilous – economic time and that’s why Rob Hays, CEO and President of Atom Computing, and his team are […]

New Research Suggests Our Brains Use Quantum Computation

Insider Brief: Scientists from Trinity College Dublin claim our brains could use quantum computation. The discovery —published in the Journal of Physics Communications —  comes after they adapted an idea developed to prove the existence of quantum gravity to explore the human brain and its workings. If the team’s results can be confirmed, they would enhance […]
