Google has unveiled a powerful new quantum computer chip that it says takes five minutes to solve a problem that would currently take the world’s fastest supercomputers 10 septillion years to complete – more time than the universe has existed.

Willow is the latest development in quantum computing, a field that is “attempting to use the principles of particle physics to create a new type of mind-bogglingly powerful computer”, said the BBC. Google says the chip represents a major breakthrough and could soon pave the way to “a useful, large-scale quantum computer”.
