Google announced its latest quantum chip, Willow. But what really caught the industry’s attention was a wild claim tucked into the blog post.
JFC what a fucking slimeball.
The chip is great and all, they used it to run a specially designed but useless calculation that’s hard to do in conventional computing. It’s not like the thing is going to give you the 7 septillionth digit of pi, Even the fact that it might be able to break RSA is more of a quirk in RSA than anything.
