Google's new chip Willow made a big statement that quantum computing is coming to the real world. That could also mean a future of cryptocurrency hacking.

The new Willow chip performed a computation in under five minutes that would take a supercomputer 10 septillion years.

Google unveiled its latest quantum processor, Willow- transforming quantum computing from technical curiosity to a practical tool.

Google has announced its new 105-qubit superconducting chip, code-named Willow, which solved a quantum supremacy experiment that would take at least 300 million years to simulate on a classical computer.

In this Science segment, we take a closer look at Google's announcement that it has cracked a key challenge in quantum computing, with a new chip capable of almost unfathomable speeds. Dubbed

Willow solved a random circuit sampling problem in 5 minutes—a task classical supercomputers would take 10 septillion years to complete Superposition allows faster calculations, while entanglement enables instantaneous, secure data transmission, unlocking immense potential

This announcement comes at a time when Google has faced criticism for slowing down in innovation and losing relevance, especially as competitors like OpenAI have gained significant attention.

Google just dropped Willow, a quantum chip that redefines what “fast” and “accurate” even mean. This isn’t your typical tech innovation. Willow can perform calculations in under five minutes, which would take the fastest supercomputers 10 septillion years to crack.
