Google’s new Willow quantum chip managed to perform the random circuit sampling (RCS) benchmark computation in under five minutes that would normally take one of today’s fastest supercomputers 10 septillion years to complete. This exceeds known timescales in physics and vastly exceeds the age of the universe, thus lending to the credence that quantum computation occurs in many parallel universes.
