Depending on who you ask, some say that quantum computers could either break the Internet, rendering pretty much every data security protocol obsolete, or allow us to compute our way out of the climate crisis.

 

These hyper-powerful devices, an emerging technology that exploits the properties of quantum mechanics, are much buzzed about.

In November last year, IBM unveiled its latest quantum computer, Osprey, a new 433 qubit processor that is three times more powerful than its predecessor built only in 2021.
