IBM compensates for errors, gets usable results out of quantum processor May be a way to squeeze useful work out before we get quantum error correction.

The record-breaking achievement could lead to practical, utility-scale quantum computers that are both smaller and faster.

PLANAR works by translating the quantum error correction problem into calculating the partition function of a spin glass, which is a well-studied problem in statistical physics.

Although error rates are generally low, occasional mistakes can disrupt protein function or regulation.
