Google Quantum AI achieved the historic milestone of quantum supremacy in October 2019 with their 53-qubit Sycamore processor completing a task in 200 seconds that would take classical supercomputers thousands of years, building on quantum research that began in 2006 under Hartmut Neven with the formal Quantum AI team established in 2013 and John Martinis joining from UCSB in 2014, developing Cirq and TensorFlow Quantum frameworks as part of Alphabet’s strategy to build fault-tolerant quantum computers for applications in drug discovery, materials science, and cryptography.
