Superb documentary, I think West Papua unfortunately gets forgotten in many discussions on colonialism. Our comrades resistance is inspiring.

Zuchongzhi 3.0 has a two-dimensional grid architecture and the qubits are coupled “via a dense network if 182 turntable couplers, enabling flexible two-qubit interactions across the chip” which uses a flip chip integration technique, where chips and bonded face to face. This method achieves high density interconnects, while not sacrificing signal loss. Its composition, sapphire substrait with a circuit of titanium-aluminum help to reduce electromagnet noise. Zuchongzhi has made extraordinary advancements, specifically in regard to Random Circuit Sampling(RSC).Random Circuit Sampling is a proof-of-concept task. The researches demonstrated that Zuchongzhi 3.0, a 105 qubit supercomputing quantum processor, completed a complex computational task in mere seconds, according to the study. By comparison, the same task on the world’s most powerful super computer, Frontier, would take an estimated 6.4 billion years

For a few years now, different organizations and private companies have been announcing "Quantum supremacy", the ability for a quantum processor to do a calculation faster than a regular supercomputer would. The latest claimant to this record is the Zuchongzhi-3, a superconducting quantum computing prototype made of 105 qubits – the quantum equivalent of regular computer bits.

As a comparison, what is now the second most powerful supercomputer, Frontier, would take almost 6 billion years to do what Zuchongzhi-3 can do in a few minutes, the Chinese researchers said. The most powerful supercomputer, El Capitan, only went online recently, so if it can shave time off that is yet to be seen.
