[++] "(The) California Institute of Technology implemented the novel wormhole teleportation protocol using Google s quantum computer, a device called Sycamore housed at Google Quantum AI in Santa Barbara, California. With this first-of-its-kind quantum gravity experiment on a chip, as Spiropulu described it, she and her team beat a competing group of physicists who aim to do wormhole teleportation with IBM and Quantinuum s quantum computers. To be clear, unlike an ordinary hologram, the wormhole isn t something we can see. While it can be considered a filament of real space-time, according to co-author Daniel Jafferis of Harvard University, lead developer of the wormhole teleportation protocol, it s not part of the same reality that we and the Sycamore computer inhabit. The holographic principle says that the two realities the one with the wormhole and the one with the qubits are alternate versions of the same physics, but how to conceptualize this kind of duality remains mysterious."--"Physicists Create a Holographic Wormhole Using a Quantum Computer" by Natalie Wolchover, at Quanta Magazine, online.
