Quantum computing has the potential to solve complex problems much faster than classical computers by harnessing the principles of quantum mechanics. It processes information using quantum bits, or qubits, which can exist in multiple states at once, unlike traditional binary bits.
However, scaling quantum computers remains a major challenge. Qubits are extremely sensitive to external noise and small imperfections in their control systems. These issues can introduce errors that disrupt calculations and limit how long and how complex quantum algorithms can be. To overcome these challenges, researchers at MIT and around the world are constantly working on improving qubit performance to enhance the reliability and scalability of quantum computing.
