Sycamore
Sycamore is a quantum computer developed by Google that uses qubits—quantum bits—to perform complex calculations at speeds unattainable by classical computers. Unlike traditional bits, qubits leverage quantum phenomena like superposition and entanglement, enabling the processor to evaluate many possibilities simultaneously. Sycamore's goal is to demonstrate "quantum supremacy," meaning it can solve a specific problem faster than the best possible traditional computer. While still in early development, Sycamore showcases how quantum computing could revolutionize fields such as cryptography, material science, and optimization by handling problems that are currently intractable.
