“China’s 1,000× Quantum GPU: Bluff or Silicon Pearl Harbor?”
From the East arrives whisper of an optical quantum chip—a thousand times swifter than Nvidia's finest, they claim. Your correspondent notes the absence of peer review with raised eyebrow.
China quietly shipping an optical quantum chip they say is 1,000× faster than Nvidia’s best—already 12k wafers/yr off stealth lines. No paper, no peer review, just raw exponential ambush. If true, every AI model you touch just got Sinofied. If fake, the west keeps sleeping. Either way, the overton window on “quantum is decades out” just shattered.
