The Ledger
Every statement that passed quotation and attribution checks. Mix any filter with any other: certainty 1/5, debate potential 5/5, or both at once.
why aren't all 3 resolved? a statement only gets an assessment when the public record can support or contradict it. opinions and what-ifs never can, and 0 checkable ones are still open, waiting for their date. predictions held up or didn't; assertions are supported or contradicted. on every card: ▮▮▮▮▮ certainty · ▮▮▮▮▮ debate potential. speakers are clickable
Martinis: Chinese researchers successfully replicated Google's quantum supremacy experiment
“When I have read the papers that duplicated what we did at Google, On the quantum supremacy experiment. You know, they know what they're doing. I mean, they go through the theory, they talk about, a lot of it is very similar to what we're doing, but they know …”
Martinis: Google's 53-qubit experiment successfully demonstrated quantum supremacy
“We published this quantum supremacy experiment with 53 qubits, where we made a lot of qubits, and we made them really good, and, you know, fast and whatever, so that we could run some algorithm, mathematical algorithm, that what, we produced some output that w…”
John Martinis: Quantum tunneling occurs across barriers 10 to 20 atoms thick
“This is seen in everyday devices. This is not, if you build very small memory circuit, you have to worry about Electrons tunneling and charge leaking off your capacitor. They have magnetic memories that depend on these tunnel junctions. So this is a very well-…”
