As if all the news about GPT-4 were not enough, this is an article from the journal Nature that that went online yesterday:
Physicists create virtual nonabelions for fault-tolerant quantum computers <https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-01574-0?utm_source=Nature+Briefing&utm_campaign=c182f988e0-briefing-dy-20230510&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_c9dfd39373-c182f988e0-44221073> It's about a preprint that just went online; they claim "*unambiguous realization of non-Abelian topological order and demonstrate control over them*". Technically they're virtual Anyons not real ones, but from the perspective of an engineer trying to make a Fault Tolerant Quantum Computer the difference between real and virtual is not important: Creation of Non-Abelian Topological Order and Anyons on a Trapped-Ion Processor <https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.03766> John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis> u63 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
