Ann: European patent granted for 12CQ quantum computing chip, page-48

I wasn't sure where to put this article - Apple's launch of new products yesterday included the following news about the M1Ultra - amazing power and capability. If one company can develop this chip, imagine what else is happening around the world governments.

Apple laid the groundwork for what was to come by announcing its most powerful chip yet, the M1 Ultra which it has created by fusing together two M1 Max chips. The chips are not linked as separate entities. Apple says that would increase latency and power consumption, and reduce bandwidth.

Instead M1 Max chips have the capability of being linked together. More than 10,000 signals can be directly connected, which offers an enormous 2.5 terabytes per second of interprocessor bandwidth. If you believe in reincarnation, at that speed several life times worth of your data could be flashed across the M1 Ultra in a single second. The resulting unified chips has 114 billion transistors, has a 20-core CPU with 16 high performance cores and 4 high efficiency cores, a 64-core GPU and supports up to 128GB of unified memory.

Apple says the neutral engine in this monster is capable of up to 22 trillion operations per second. This is all achieved with a 65 per cent reduction in power consumption.
