"photonic processor dynamic programmability on all gates... Gaussian boson sampling4 (GBS) on 216 squeezed modes entangled three-dimensional connectivity5, time-multiplexed and photon-number-resolving architecture... more than 9,000 years best available algorithms and supercomputers to produce, using exact methods, single sample from programmed distribution, Borealis only 36 μs... over 50 million times as extreme... registering events with up to 219 photons and mean photon number of 125"
