The quantum supremacy experiment
Dr. Rami BarendsQuantum supremacy, as originally defined by John Preskill, is "the day when well-controlled quantum systems can perform tasks surpassing what can be done in the classical world". I will discuss the challenges posed in performing a well-defined computational task on a programmable superconducting quantum processor, where the cost of doing the same task on a classical computer would be prohibitively higher.
