Quantum Computing & Tech ⚛️ on Instagram: "Sean Carroll demonstrates just how deeply strange quantum reality is—using a single photon. In a lab in Geneva, a photon is fired at a partially silvered mirror. According to quantum mechanics, it doesn’t choose a path. It both reflects and passes through at the same time, existing in a superposition of outcomes. Detectors on each path then register the result, creating two distinct physical possibilities. Until a measurement is made, neither outcome is

Rowan Cheung on Instagram: "Google’s Willow quantum chip has achieved the first verifiable quantum advantage, running an algorithm 13,000 times faster than the world’s best supercomputers. The Quantum Echoes algorithm measures molecular structures by sending signals through quantum bits, then reversing them to detect amplified echoes. This breakthrough enhances nuclear magnetic resonance technology, revealing atomic positions in molecules with unprecedented precision. In tests, Willow analyzed m
