 Einstein's “Spooky Action at a Distance”  Quantum Entanglement  Until measured, bit can be 0 or 1  Two qubits, then, can hold four values at any given time (00, 01, 10, and 11). And as you keep increasing the number of qubits, you exponentially increase the power of the system  In quantum computer, thanks to what’s called the superposition principle, information is held in a quantum system that can exist in two states at the same time

 512 qubits—the fundamental building block of a quantum computer—to more than a 1000 qubits.  Doesn’t require a significant increase in power  Together with NASA  The Canadian company that built the machine, said it has agreed to provide regular upgrades to the system—keeping it “state-of-the-art”—for the next seven years  Confident there are situations where the D- Wave can outperform today’s non-quantum machines  Difficult to build a quantum computer
