Their joint research, published in Nature, demonstrated the first successful generation of Certified Quantum Randomness, a milestone that will have profound implications for industries relying on randomness, such as cryptography, privacy, and high-level simulations. The Role of Quantum Computers in Generating Certified Randomness Traditional computing methods rely on pseudorandom number generators, which, while effective, are not truly random and are susceptible to manipulation or breaches. However, quantum computers generate random numbers through quantum superposition, making their results inherently unpredictable. In this breakthrough, the team used the 56-qubit Quantinuum System Model H2 quantum computer, which boasts high-fidelity and all-to-all qubit connectivity. By applying a quantum protocol known as Random Circuit Sampling (RCS), they generated randomness that classical computers could not replicate in the same timeframe.

This has created a market that not only lacks consumer safeguards but also fails to contribute to the country’s economy in the form of taxation or funding for harm prevention initiatives. The new bill aims to address these gaps by regulating the sector and placing New Zealanders’ interests at the forefront.
