Physics Quantum computers don’t always need more qubits – just add chaos To create useful randomness in a quantum computer, you could add more quantum bits, but using quantum chaos does the trick too By Karmela Padavic-Callaghan 5 May 2025 Facebook / Meta Twitter / X icon Linkedin Reddit Email Illustration of a chip containing quantum bits, or qubitsPete Hansen/Shutterstock The effort to build truly useful quantum computers often comes down to making them bigger by adding qubits, the quantum bits that are the basic building blocks of these devices. But creating quantum chaos inside them could have the same effect – and let quantum computers perform some tasks that seem too big for them to handle.
