Symbolic imageIBM says a "quantum advantage" era has begun, a claim the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday. So far only the company's own assertion is on the table: no technical detail, no independent verification.
This topic follows claims about the point at which quantum computers outperform conventional ones, and who gets to declare it first. IBM has announced what it calls the beginning of a "quantum advantage" era, presenting it as a computing breakthrough with industry-shifting consequences, as reported by the Wall Street Journal on Thursday, 30 July. What is public so far is the company's assertion itself. The available material carries no technical detail and no confirmation from outside researchers, so the claim remains unverified. The open question is whether independent groups will back it or dispute it.
