The world of quantum computing is rapidly evolving, and this week has been no exception. Here’s a roundup of the latest news from the field:<\/p>\n

1. SMART Building Security Transitioning to Post-Quantum Cryptography: The SMART building security system, developed by the University of Bristol, is transitioning to post-quantum cryptography. This means that the system will be able to protect data even in the face of quantum computing attacks. This is an important step in protecting data from the growing threat of quantum computing.<\/p>\n

2. UK Chancellor Announces \u00a31M AI Prize, Quantum Investments & \u00a3900M ‘Exascale’ Computer: The UK Chancellor, Rishi Sunak, has announced a \u00a31 million prize for artificial intelligence research, as well as investments in quantum computing and a \u00a3900 million ‘exascale’ computer. This is part of the government’s plan to make the UK a leader in quantum computing and AI research.<\/p>\n

3. Chinese Scientists Achieve New Record in High-Rate Quantum Key Distribution: Chinese scientists have achieved a new record in high-rate quantum key distribution. This means that they have successfully transmitted a quantum key over a distance of 1,000 kilometers at a rate of 10 Gbps. This is an important step in developing secure communication networks that are resistant to quantum computing attacks.<\/p>\n

4. IBM Launches Quantum Computing Platform for Businesses: IBM has launched a new quantum computing platform for businesses. The platform, called IBM Quantum Enterprise, will allow businesses to access IBM’s quantum computing capabilities and use them to solve complex problems. This is an important step in making quantum computing more accessible to businesses.<\/p>\n

5. Microsoft Launches Quantum Development Kit: Microsoft has launched a new quantum development kit that will allow developers to create applications for quantum computers. This is an important step in making quantum computing more accessible to developers and helping them create innovative applications.<\/p>\n

These are just some of the latest developments in the world of quantum computing. As the field continues to evolve, we can expect to see more exciting news in the coming weeks and months.<\/p>\n
