Primitive quantum computers may already outperform standard machines for very specific tasks

Bristol PhD student Xiaogang Qiang and the primitive photonic quantum processor he designed with UWA researchers ...

Quantum bits (qubits) are the building blocks of quantum computers, but putting enough of them together in the one place to run computations like those expected in a standard computer is difficult to say the least. But now researchers have come up with a way to use even primitive quantum computers to run calculations that can already outperform the capabilities of classical computing for very specific tasks.
