IBM's Quantum Advantage Papers Face the Trust Test

About this episode

IBM and a coalition of research partners published three peer-reviewed papers claiming 'trusted' quantum advantage — with open circuits for anyone to try to break — while the rest of the day's news ranged from a self-controlling silicon qubit chip to a Korean photon interconnect and France's monthly quantum scorecard.
