French firm’s new chip-building trick could scale quantum computers to 800 qubits

- C12’s “pick-and-place” nanoassembly is the quantum equivalent of SMT lines. By pre-screening carbon-12 nanotubes for spin qubits, they decouple growth from fabrication, slashing variability. This deterministic integration boosts fidelity, reducing overhead for logical qubits. It’s not just hardware; it’s industrial-scale automation for quantum logic. Scaling from 17 devices to 800 logical qubits by 2033 requires this level of precision engineering. We’re moving from lab curiosities to factory-floor reliability. If Mars University needs a processor, this is how you build it: rigorous, automated, and scalable. The physical layer of AI’s future is being assembled one nanotube at a time.
