1:24:47>> A millionth. Sorry. Yeah. >> The this is actually really significant because um it's also because it's like qu like when you're doing it's parallelized, right? So it's it's the volume of what you're actually doing. It's not like it's not like every millisecond that goes by because you're now parallelized in what you're actually doing like the actual amount of work the way we think about it in a classical sense >> it I don't know if I'm explaining that correctly you're exactly right like the the >> the >> how do we say it the the the amount of stuff you can do with this

1:25:28>> the amount of tokenacy the token output >> is is is not just like the same as you would get in a millisecond on a classical system. >> No, no, not at all. >> The token output is like running chatbt parallelized n number of times and all of those token outputs get you to your derive like your ideal whatever up. I'm just trying to talk about how that millisecond difference is extremely meaningful. Exactly. And the other thing is you know getting let's say 20 times longer >> Yes. >> in this decoherence time >> Yes. adds up exponentially because because here this is a physical error, right? This is this is something that's happening at the hardware level, right?

1:26:09So all of your error correction algorithms >> can now take advantage of the fact that the thing that they are doing the error correction on is itself not that bad. >> Yeah. Yeah. It's less errorprone. Yeah. Right. Right. It's it's more it has higher >> efficacy. So so so you're adding on exponential on exponential, right? and and it's going to it's going to be a really big thing. I think the the other the other huge thing about this is this chip um which is it's it's just an upgrade on the industry dominant transmon architecture >> okay >> which is the same thing that IBM and Google have been using in their current architecture right the recent paper that came out of the willow quantum chip in

1:26:51Google >> it's using the same architecture >> so the thing is this is something like a I can take that out >> and I can put this thing Yeah. Yeah. All of the outside of the chip itself, there's all of the other the cooling system, like all the other infrastructure. >> Yeah. The way I talk to the chip, >> all of that. >> They could hot swap the chip. >> It's not a new It's not a totally new uh chip design that requires a refactoring of the rest of the infrastructure. That's really >> That's huge actually. Right. Because because now this is scalable. It's industry compatible. >> Yeah. >> Right. And and so and so if Willow just gets this design, it's going to be a thousand times better. And Willow

1:27:33already is like making headlines. >> So imagine what it can do with this, right? It's really bringing us closer to that >> future possibly of where >> something scientifically standard could be happening with quantum computers, you know, within the next decade, >> you know.
