A number of weeks in the past, I used to be huddled over a laptop computer with two researchers from IBM to find out about a Schrödinger’s cat that they had made in one among their quantum computer systems. It was an enormous one – sufficiently big, I realized, to be thought-about proof that their laptop was value listening to.
Now, this wasn’t an actual cat with paws and whiskers, in fact, however a metaphorical one made from tiny superconducting circuits called…
