The Rise of Quantum Computing The Rise of Quantum Computing: How It Works, Challenges, and Future Applications Quantum computing is no longer just a futuristic concept — it’s becoming a tangible reality that could revolutionize industries ranging from healthcare to finance. Unlike classical computers that process information in bits (0 or 1), quantum computers use qubits that can exist in multiple states simultaneously thanks to the principles of quantum mechanics. How Quantum Computing Works At its core, quantum computing leverages superposition and entanglement : Superposition: A qubit can be in multiple states at once, allowing massive parallel computation. Entanglement: Qubits can be linked so that the state of one instantly influences the other, even over long distances. Quantum computers use these principles to perform calculations much ...
