64-Qubit Simulation Successful
With improvements in both superconducting and semiconductor quantum chips, simulating a 50-qubit system using classical computers takes in the region of 16 petabytes of RAM. Chinese researchers have managed to simulate a 64-qubit system with greatly reduced hardware requirements. With such a reduction, realization of other quantum feats stands to be simulated while the world waits…because quantum is coming.
