minus-squareDonkter@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoWould it not still be a Central Processing Unit?
minus-squaregmtom@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoDepending on the design they might still have a CPU, but it wouldn’t be where the quantum wizardry happens.
minus-squareancap shark@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoNo, quantum computing (at least for now) sucks at the tasks CPUs are great at, so the idea of to have quantum as a support to the CPU, handling complex, heavily paralyzed commoutations, like the GPU does nowdays
