The Advantage2 computer that was used to achieve today’s milestone is available for customers today on D-Wave’s Leap real-time quantum cloud service. In addition, the very latest model of the Advantage2 is four times larger than the one used to demonstrate quantum supremacy.

D-Wave is a company that makes quantum annealers, specialized hardware that is most effective when applied to a class of optimization problems. The new work shows that the hardware can track the behavior of a quantum system called an Ising model far more efficiently than any of the current state-of-the-art classical algorithms.

D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) ("D-Wave" or the "Company"), a leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services and the world's first commercial supplier of quantum computers, today announced a scientific breakthrough published in the esteemed journal Science,
