"The initial milestones have already been achieved with low-capacity systems, but they are essential to continue the journey and reach the era of quantum utility, where quantum computers can be used to solve meaningful scientific problems, rather than just for advancing the study of quantum computing itself, as IBM explains. For this new stage, which employs tools and programs that yield better results than classical procedures and which cannot be simulated,"
"For this new stage, which employs tools and programs that yield better results than classical procedures and which cannot be simulated, it is necessary to surpass 100 qubits (the qubit is the smallest unit of quantum computing), and, as of Tuesday, Spain's Ikerbasque scientific foundation is at the forefront of this race with the inauguration at its San Sebastian headquarters of the IBM Quantum System Two, a computer equipped with a 156-qubit Heron processor,"
Quantum computing requires surpassing 100 qubits to reach quantum utility, where machines solve meaningful scientific problems beyond classical simulation. Initial milestones have been achieved with low-capacity systems, but larger processors and new tools are necessary to outperform classical procedures. Spain inaugurated the IBM Quantum System Two at Ikerbasque's San Sebastian headquarters, featuring a 156-qubit Heron processor—the first of its kind in Europe and the third worldwide. The IBMEuskadi Quantum Computing Center and a 100% European-technology quantum computer at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center position Spain among six global technological hubs. System Two is presented as an opportunity to lead the new sector, develop technology, and create industry, joining IBM's network of over 700,000 users.
