Diraq, an Australian company, is advancing quantum computing by producing qubit devices with over 99% fidelity using CMOS technology, as detailed in a Nature article. This industrial process enables the creation of small evaluation devices that could pave the way for larger functional qubit systems. Some reports suggest these devices may align with DARPA's Quantum Benchmark Initiative goals, although specific documentation from DARPA on these goals is not readily available. The discussion highlights the significance of Diraq's work in the context of quantum technology development. Overall, Diraq's innovations could play a crucial role in the future of quantum computing.

TL;DR
Diraq's qubits chips hold up 99+% accuracy when made in an industrial CMOS foundry.
The Nature article "Industry-compatible silicon spin-qubit unit cells exceeding 99% fidelity" describes an industrial process used by the Australian company "Diraq" to manufacture small (2 qubit) evaluation devices using CMOS technology.

The results show that the process will likely support much larger functional qubit devices.

Some articles (such as this one from Science Daily) also claim that the study demonstrates the devices will meet DARPA's Quantum Benchmark Initiative (QBI) goals, but I cannot find any DARPA document describing any such goals.

A new phenomenon is AI-generated news videos pretending to be by well-known professors Jeffery Sachs and John Mearsheimer. The amazing thing is that they both seem very tolerant of this. Youtube will block these if they request it but this has been going on for months and such blocks never seem to happen. The other surprise is that while they may be visually ugly or even grotesque the news analysis is quite good. If given the sound alone I don't believe I could tell it from the real...
