A gold superconducting quantum computer hangs against a black background. Quantum computers, like the one shown here, could someday allow chemists to solve problems that classical computers can’t.

Richard Feynman, the iconic physicist and one of the progenitors of quantum computing, famously said in 1981: “Nature isn’t classical, dammit, and if you want to make a simulation of nature, you’d ...

In the early days of D-Wave’s history, the company made a decision to pursue annealing as its first technology to build a quantum computer because it promised to offer the fastest path to commercial ...
