Google’s latest quantum chip, Willow, has stunned the scientific community by completing a complex calculation in under five minutes—a task that would take classical supercomputers an estimated 10 septillion years.
The breakthrough, led by Hartmut Neven’s team at Google, has reignited discussions about the multiverse interpretation of quantum mechanics, which suggests quantum computations may occur across parallel realities. If true, this could mark a profound shift in how we understand the fabric of reality.
However, not all experts are convinced. Skeptics urge caution, emphasizing that more evidence is needed before confirming such extraordinary claims. Still, the experiment is widely considered a major milestone in quantum computing, with potential implications for science, technology, and even our perception of existence.
