IBM reveals Osprey, the world's most powerful quantum computer with 433 quantum bits

Very impressive! Progress seems to leap now from a few quantum bits not long ago! When will we see the first major advances from quantum computing?

"... The new chip headlines a raft of advances in quantum computers that the company has announced, as it prepares for a massive leap next year. ...
It packs twice as many qubits as the previous record-holder – Xanadu’s Borealis, which was tested with 216 qubits – and over three times more than IBM’s own Eagle, announced last year, which packed 127 qubits. ...
The Osprey has a similar architecture to its forebear, being comprised of a single layer of qubits atop several layers of control wiring, which helps cram more qubits in while reducing their error rate. An integrated filtering system has now been added, which helps reduce noise and improve stability of the device. ...
The company’s roadmap says that next year’s quantum processor, the Condor, will boast a stunning 1,121 qubits. Also on the cards is a modular processor called the Heron, which can stack multiple 133-qubit units together to make more powerful quantum processors. And finally, the IBM Quantum System Two will be released towards the end of 2023. This modular system will form the framework of the company’s quantum supercomputers ..."
