And

It reminds me, though, that when NVQ-Link from NVIDIA came out, they were showing how the chips that are managing the memory and so on, tied to quantum computing, that's a combination of classical architecture and quantum architecture.

And that's necessary in order to basically deliver the output of this mystical, weird...

that's happening through all the entanglement issues within the qubits to actually elevate that to our attention.

So those things work side by side.

Now, I wanted to tell you about another company that's just achieved a kind of breakthrough in the quantum architecture.

And the name of the company is Continuum.

And they have a Helios machine and it has 98 physical qubits.

But from those 98 physical qubits, they can deliver 48 logical error corrected qubits.

Now, what does that mean?

The two to one ratio roughly here is unique.

Other machines out there, including the ones from Google and IBM, et cetera, require anything from 12 to 100 times the physical qubits to create one logical qubit.

Right.

So now the number of physical qubits demonstrated by quantinium that's necessary to create the logical qubits that the computer actually uses.

And the reason the physical to logical ratio exists is that the number of physical qubits are required to overcome the inherent transience of the calculations that are happening in the qubits themselves.

and to accomplish error corrections to get an error-free quantum computing logical qubit all right so what this new uh fault tolerant machine enables is that eventually they'll be able to have thousands of physical qubits and hundreds of logical ones when we hear about you know one of the

bigger quantum computers today having X number of qubits.

We're talking about the physical qubits, not the logical qubits.

And even having a quantum computer with two logical qubits is way more powerful than a supercomputer.

Right.
