IBM has introduced the “IBM Osprey”, its new 433-quantum bit (qubit) processor, which contains the largest qubit count of any IBM quantum processor, more than tripling the 127 qubits on the IBM Eagle processor unveiled in 2021.
Saying exponential problems require exponential computation, industry titan IBM is betting big that “quantum computing” will bring profound changes to the technology landscape more than what artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain – two tech trends which it also pioneered and helped developed – have done in recent years.
