Australia: Controlling Qubits on Silicon

Australia, in collaboration with U.S.A.’s Purdue University, surged forward with controlling qubits individually on silicon chips. The ability to control qubits singly is seen paramount to moving ahead in making quantum computing a reality. Additional positive findings were error-reductions in the system due to the ability to control qubits individually when in proximity to each other. This brings quantum computing one step closer to complex computations involving entangled states.

Argument: QC Will Not Destabilize International Security

This work argues quantum computing will not destabilize our world. Two foundational points are made: “Uncertainty [is] an important cause of war” and “institutions [are] an important source of information”. Though requiring some time to read and digest, the argument put forth in this working paper is worth the time for those whose mindset is strategic.
