Researchers Claim First 'Unconditional Proof' of Quantum Advantage. What Happens Next?

The first reported demonstration of “unconditional” quantum advantage has little practical value—but that's perhaps why it matters.

Quantum computers are already here, even though it’s not readily apparent. Now, researchers say quantum advantage—the field’s long-promised milestone of outperforming classical computers—appears to have finally arrived. But the story comes with an important caveat. Research by scientists at the University of Texas at Austin and Colorado computing firm Quantinuum devised and carried out an experiment that demonstrates “unconditional” quantum adva…
