Less than a year after IBM’s achievement, a team of scientists from the Flatiron Institute and New York University has figured out a way to beat Big Blue’s quantum computer using a classical computer with a new method called a tensor network approach.

This is kind of hilarious on the face of it. They've modeled a quantum computer on a normal transistor based computer and it solves the problem "with more accuracy."

It's kind of weird

The tensor network approach used by the scientists from the Flatiron Institute and New York University to surpass IBM's quantum computer is not a new concept but has been optimized for this specific application. Tensor networks have been used in physics for a long time to study many-body quantum systems, like electrons in a superconductor or the atoms in a molecule.
