flag IBM launched two new quantum processors and software upgrades, advancing its path to fault-tolerant quantum computing by 2029.

flag IBM has unveiled two new quantum processors, Nighthawk and Loon, as part of its push toward quantum advantage by 2026 and fault-tolerant computing by 2029. flag Nighthawk, a 120-qubit chip with 218 tunable couplers, supports up to 5,000 two-qubit gates and enables 30% more complex circuits, while Loon advances error correction with hardware components needed for fault tolerance, completed a year early. flag IBM also introduced software upgrades in Qiskit that improve accuracy by 24% and reduce error mitigation costs over 100-fold. flag The company transitioned to a 300mm wafer facility, doubling development speed and increasing chip complexity tenfold. flag These milestones support IBM’s broader strategy to make quantum computing practical through open collaboration, real-world testing, and scalable innovation.
