Quantum Artificial Life is Here

QUTIS (Quantum Technologies for Information Science) Group researchers have succesfully realized quantum artificial life in IBM’s cloud quantum computer ibmqx4. This is a world’s first. It’s not just life that’s being simulated: the organisms even evolve. This was the goal: simulate natural evolution on a quantum computer. Why do I love this news? Because even though the organisms simulated are quite simple, the subject touches on a…
