NVIDIA CEO says quantum calculations reach a “flexion point”

Nvidia Executive Director Jensen Huang is becoming more and more about quantum calculations-and he expects that they will start solving problems in the real world in the coming years.

“Quantum Computing reaches a folding point,” Jensen said during his main speech at the NVIDIA GTC Paris Developer Conference conference on Wednesday.

Quantum computers are machines that use the laws of quantum mechanics to solve too complex problems for classic computers that store information in bits (such and zeros).

Quantum computers use quantum bits or “cubes” that can be zero, one or something between them – the goal is to process much larger volumes of data to facilitate breakthroughs in areas such as medicine, science and finance.

Quantum is a buzzing space for investors with the growth of several popular shares, such as Computing rejections and IONQwhich on Monday acquired Oxford Ionics for $ 1.1 billion.

Huang stated on Wednesday that he was impressed by the “big community” by quantum computer companies in Europe, adding that he had met with representatives of the French quantum startup Pasqal on Tuesday night.

“We are available” from the ability to apply quantum computers in areas that can solve some interesting problems in the coming years, “Huang added. “It’s a really exciting time.”

This marks more views than Quantum’s Nvidia boss after Huang has previously stated that he believes that the 15-year graphical line for the realization of useful quantum computers is “from the early side” and that the 20-year term is better.

His views at the time led to quantum computing stocks including Rigetti, Ionq and D-wave quantum Immersion. Recently Huang has admitted that his comments had come out wrong And he expressed his surprise from the subsequent market movements.

Huang is not alone in noticing the quantum computing over. At the end of last year, Google announced its Last quantum chip, Willow that is said to be a big breakthrough In the so-called “error correction”-a combination of techniques used to protect quantum information from errors.
