== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> == * '''Quantum Supremacy''' β The point at which a quantum computer can solve a problem that no classical computer can solve in a human lifetime. * '''NISQ Era''' β (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) The current era where we have ~50β400 qubits, but they are still "Noisy" and prone to errors. * '''Monte Carlo Simulation''' β A statistical method used in finance and physics that quantum computers can perform 1,000x faster. * '''Superconductivity''' β A material property where electricity flows with zero resistance; quantum computers are needed to find "Room Temperature" versions. * '''Nitrogen Fixation''' β The process of making fertilizer; quantum computers could find a way to do this using 100x less energy. * '''Sycamore''' β The name of Google's 53-qubit processor that first claimed quantum supremacy in 2019. * '''Jiuzhang''' β The name of the Chinese photonic quantum computer that claimed supremacy using "Light" in 2020. * '''Optimization''' β Finding the "Best" solution to a problem with billions of variables (e.g., the perfect flight schedule for an airline). * '''Molecular Simulation''' β Using a quantum computer to model exactly how a new drug will interact with a human cell. </div> <div style="background-color: #006400; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
