The quantum computing industry is advancing, but is it advancing fast enough? While we constantly hear claims like a quantum computer could be 20,000 times faster, the actual physical processors — the brains of these machines — have been stuck at a size of around 100 qubits. Google recently hit 105 with its Willow chip, and IBM is at 120 with its Nighthawk model. But going further appears to be difficult because physically cramming more onto a wafer is no easy feat, mostly due to wiring issues. Well, a Dutch startup called QuantWare has decided to blow those numbers out of the water. They announced a new processor architecture called VIO-40K that apparently packs 10,000 qubits onto a single chip.
