IBM Unveils a Quantum Chip That Runs Circuits Twenty Five Times Faster Than Its Last Generation

IBM Quantum has released Nighthawk r2, a 120 qubit processor that uses a fast new reset method to run more than 100,000 quantum circuits every second, twenty five times faster than IBM's previous chips. The breakthrough targets a bottleneck that has held quantum computers back for years, the long wait between circuit runs, rather than simply adding more qubits.
