India, June 10 -- International Business Machines Corp. (IBM) has unveiled plans to build Starling, the world's first fault-tolerant quantum computer, expected to go live by 2029 at its new quantum data center in upstate New York.
Unlike today's quantum systems which are hampered by frequent errors Starling will be capable of executing complex quantum operations with stability and accuracy, unlocking powerful applications in fields like drug development, semiconductor design, logistics, and financial risk modeling.
The breakthrough centers on IBM's proprietary qLDPC error correction code, which enables efficient and scalable error correction using fewer qubits than traditional surface codes used by competitors like Google. This advancemen...
