The global race to make a practical quantum computer took a big leap forward
SMRTR summary
Quantinuum's new 98-qubit trapped-ion quantum computer, Helios, is the largest of its kind ever built. Its X-shaped junction allows parallel processing and smarter data routing, enabling computations beyond even the most powerful supercomputers. However, practical quantum computing still requires roughly one million qubits, making this milestone promising but far from finished.
