Amazon On Thursday, it revealed its first chip for quantum computing and said its design will help the company build efficient hardware systems.
The processor is called Ocelot, and the announcement comes as more and more tech companies advance in Quantum. Last week, Amazon Cloud Competitors Microsoft Show off it Inaugural quantum chip. Microsoft has a paper in Nature Records Its Quantum Works, Amazon this week follow.
Some technicians hope that quantum computers can solve the problems that plague classical computers. PCs and phones run data that compute and store data, while quantum computers can be used with qubits or Qubits and can run in both states at the same time.
“We believe that scaling Ocelot to a comprehensive quantum computer that can transform social impacts Compared to the common method, only one-tenth of resources helps practice quantum computing is closer,” wrote Fernando Brandão, director of application science at Amazon Web Services, and Oskar Painter, head of quantum hardware at Cloud Group, in a blog post.
The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) provides funding for quantum computing research Twenty yearsbut this technology is slow and cannot enter consumers and businesses.
“That’s because they’re not big enough,” said Peter Barrett, founder and general partner of Playground Global, which supports Quantum Startups Phasecraft and Psiquantum.
Barrett said that at a location of one million Quarts, the technology works even if there are some problems. Google’s Willow, the world’s tallest quantum chip, Function 105 onlyThe painter told CNBC that although Amazon has only 9 Ocelots.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said in 2020 that as the head of AWS, the company “will play a role in Quantum Computing in the future” as the cloud for large companies and public sectors grows bigger.
Six months after Jassy posted these comments, AWS issued Amazon Braket service that allows developers to try other companies’ quantum computers, including ionq and Calculate rejection. Microsoft’s Azure Cloud also has similar products. The painter said Amazon is planning its internal quantum chips to be done through chips.
In 2023, AWS Senior Vice President Peter DeSantis talk The Cloud Group builds quantum processors at its reshaping conference in Las Vegas and is expected to provide more details in the future.
Like Microsoft, Amazon made chips internally. Barrett said building a system with one million volume dynamics will work with the world’s leading semiconductor manufacturers. The painter said that with the development of quantum hardware, outsourcing to partners is an option.
The painter said that public interest in the field has recently increased as the company discusses new ways to assemble the wrong quantum. The painter said Amazon designed OCELOT to solve error correction problems, and Google’s Willow also proves improvements in the field.
The painter estimates that commercial workloads will run on quantum computers in 10 years or more.
At a meeting with analysts in January Nvidia CEO Jansen Huang said useful quantum computers could be 15 to 30 Years have passed. A few days later, Yuan Chief Mark Zuckerberg told Joe Rogan that he is not a quantum computing expert, but most people think it is at least a decade more viable.
Pat Gelsinger, Intel’s The former CEO is more optimistic.
“My predictions a few years ago were to maintain my predictions – by 2030, useful quantum computing.” LinkedIn Review Wednesday.
