Google Googl announced its intention to introduce commercial quantum calculation applications over the next five years, a calendar that calls into question Nvidia‘s Nvda Jensen Huang‘s 20 -year prediction.
What happened:: Hartmut NevenThe head of Google Quantum IA, provides that the real applications of quantum computer science emerge within five years, potentially revolutionizing sectors such as materials, the creation of drugs and energy alternatives. Neven shared its optimistic perspectives on the future of quantum computer science in an interview with Reuters on Wednesday.
“We are optimistic that within five years, we will see real applications which are only possible on quantum computers.”
Despite the uncertainty surrounding the calendar of progress in quantum computer science, Google remains confident in its progress. By taking advantage of “qubits” to treat several numbers at a time, quantum computer science has the potential to create machines thousands of times stronger than traditional computers. This promise has aroused considerable interest from governments and businesses, in particular in areas such as cybersecurity, finance and health care.
Since its creation in 2012, the quantum computer program of Google has made substantial progress. In December, Google announced that its new fleas had overcome an important challenge in industry. With quantum processors, Google has solved a computer problem in a few minutes – something that a conventional computer would take longer than the history of the universe to finish.
On Wednesday, google quantum computer scientists revealed new progress towards their objective of five years in an article published in the scientific journal Nature.

Why it matters: The remarkable speed and efficiency of quantum IT, as well as its potential to revolutionize industries, have aroused significant interest in governments and businesses. They closely monitored the potential of quantum IT to revolutionize modern cybersecurity, as well as industries such as finance and health care. The ambitious chronology prediction of Google contrasts strongly with that of Nvidia Huang who considered that the practical applications of quantum computers are about 20 years old.
After Huang’s remarks, quantum IT shares experienced a significant drop, with Quantum Computing Inc. Qubt,, D-Wave Quantum Inc. QBTS,, Rigetti Computing Inc. RgtiAnd Ionq is tumbled heavily on January 8.
However, the estimate of the chronology of Google aligns with that of Microsoft Corporation‘s Msft co-founder Bill Gates‘Prediction That it could take three to five years To develop logical quantum IT qubits. Gates, who invested in Quantum Company Company Ionq inc. Ionq Thanks to its company’s breakthrough energy, made this prediction during the Yahoo Finance opening podcast.
Class A and Class C shares of Alphabet Inc. Googl Goog has jumped more than 20% in the last six months.
