Their new chip, “Willow,” solves in 5 minutes what the fastest supercomputer would take 10 septillion years to compute. 
(Yes, that’s 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years!)
But here’s the kicker:
Willow isn’t solving all our problems yet—it’s experimental, paving the way for breakthroughs in drug development, nuclear fusion, and even better car batteries.
Why does this matter?
Quantum computing will redefine industries. The potential to solve problems exponentially faster could change how we approach medicine, security, and energy. But there are risks too, like quantum computers breaking current encryption methods.
Companies like Apple are already racing to make their systems “quantum proof.”
Curious what industry do you think quantum computing will disrupt first?
