Verifiable quantum advantage

A quantum computer outruns supercomputers on a result that can be checked.

Google's Quantum Echoes algorithm, run on the Willow chip, measured an out-of-time-order correlator about 13,000 times faster than classical supercomputers, as published in Nature. Unlike earlier sampling demos, the output is a verifiable physical quantity.
