IBM recently demonstrated how its error-handling technology enabled a quantum computer to outperform a classical supercomputing approach. This technology could lead to more reliable and useful quantum systems, which could significantly advance areas such as AI and machine-learning. IBM Quantum and University of California, Berkeley have developed techniques to show that noisy quantum computers will be able to provide value sooner than expected. These techniques involve handling both the zero or one value and the phase of the qubit, which is like a direction that they point.
