Today, Google Quantum AI and Google.org are joining XPRIZE and the Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator (GESDA) to launch XPRIZE Quantum Applications, a 3-year, $5 million global competition to apply quantum computing to solve real-world challenges. The competition, which kicks off today, aims to generate quantum computing algorithms that can be put into practice (today or in the future) to help achieve societally beneficial goals, like those described by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The competition is closely aligned with Google Quantum AI’s focus on building a large-scale, error corrected quantum computer, and developing useful quantum computing applications, and it builds on Google.org’s support for applying emerging technology to large, global challenges — especially as related to the SDGs.

Practical #quantumcomputing is still a few years away (whatever "a few" turns out to be in the end) but it makes sense to think ahead and unleash #crowdintelligence to see what great use cases we can think of beyond what we already know today, like breaking codes or secure communication or simulating complex systems such as chemical reactions or financial markets or general optimizations problems. XPRIZE has announced the Quantum for Real-World Impact contest (https://lnkd.in/eAevurKs), sponsored by Google and other. The 3 year initiative features a $5m prize purse and "aims to speed the development of quantum computing algorithms focused on sustainability, health, and other societal issues." The idea is to drive commercial and academic research into application scenarios relevant for global challenges ahead of time, anticipating that sufficiently powerful hardware will become available. #quantumcomputers 10

One of the most remarkable advancements lies in the realm of quantum supremacy. Google's achievement of quantum supremacy in 2019 marked a watershed moment, showcasing the first instance where a quantum computer outperformed the most powerful classical supercomputers. Google's 53-qubit Sycamore processor successfully executed a task in 200 seconds that would have taken the world's leading supercomputers thousands of years to complete. This groundbreaking feat demonstrated the practical feasibility of quantum computation and hinted at the transformative power it could wield in various domains. Moreover, the concept of quantum entanglement, a fundamental quantum phenomenon where particles become interconnected and the state of one particle instantaneously influences the state of another, has been harnessed for communication purposes. Quantum communication protocols, such as quantum key distribution (QKD), ensure secure communication channels by leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics to detect any eavesdropping attempts. China's Micius satellite, equipped with a quantum communication payload, has achieved record-breaking distances in quantum entanglement, opening up new frontiers in quantum-secured communication networks. the recent breakthroughs in quantum computing herald a new era of possibilities, from achieving quantum supremacy to overcoming fundamental challenges in qubit stability and quantum communication. These strides not only showcase the remarkable progress made by researchers but also underscore the transformative potential of quantum computing across diverse fields. As the quantum frontier unfolds, we find ourselves on the cusp of a technological revolution that promises to reshape the very fabric of computation and problem-solving.
