The design is a
leap forward
in silicon spin qubits; it was only two years ago,
in a paper
in Nature, that Dzurak and Veldhorst showed, for the first time, how
quantum logic calculations could be done
in a real silicon device, with the creation of a two - qubit
logic gate — the central building block of a
quantum computer.
I happen to believe that drawing any spiritual conclusions from
quantum mechanics is an unfounded
leap in logic — but if someone out there
in the world is willing to pay someone # 1 million for pondering the nature of reality, that's a world I'm happy to live
in.
