"Since April, we've tripled the number of logical qubits here...We are accelerating toward that hundred-logical-qubit capability," said Microsoft Technical Fellow Krysta Svore.
Collectively, the announcements are the latest sign that quantum computing has emerged from its infancy and is rapidly progressing toward developing systems that can reliably perform calculations.
Making error correction simpler involves spreading a single bit of quantum information across a collection of bits, which makes any error less catastrophic.
Detecting when an error occurs involves adding some additional bits to the logical qubit such that their value is based on the bits holding the data, allowing measurement of ancillary qubits.
