Bite-Size Science: The return of analog computing, a brief on the latest quantum computing innovation

By Amber Abdul | March 10

While digital computers have become entrenched in our daily lives, a new analog quantum computer offers a stark contrast in both its design and capabilities. A team of physicists from Stanford University and University College Dublin created the “Quantum Simulator platform,” making it possible to solve previously unsolvable problems. This new analog computer represents a breakthrough in how scientists understand superconductivity and its merits.

Bite-Size Science: Sweetgreen's robotic model
