Quantum connections could unlock more computing power

Summary

• The quantum internet is a network of quantum computers capable of sending and receiving information encoded in quantum states.
• This network could use entanglement to link quantum devices, allowing them to exchange information and function together as a larger computing system.
• Connections could extend from individual chips to fiber-optic networks and satellites.
• The technology enables new approaches to secure communication.
