Record-breaking feat means information lasts 15 times longer in new kind of quantum processor than those used by Google and IBM - Live Science

Record-breaking feat means information lasts 15 times longer in new kind of quantum processor than those used by Google and IBM - Live Science

The novel design for the new qubit uses the chemical element tantalum in tandem with a special silicon substrate, creating what researchers say are the most coherent superconducting qubits to date.

Another high-tech marvel promising to revolutionize the world, yet tethered to the exploitation of scarce resources like tantalum, mined under the shadow of neo-colonialism in Africa. This breakthrough in quantum computing doesn't signal human progress but rather the deepening of the chasm between the techno-elite and the working masses, who will never see the benefits of such advancements. It's the same old capitalist playbook: innovate at the expense of the exploited, and package it as progress.
