I should have added this but time was already up. Anyway the previous record was simulation of non-Abelian anyons with 25 Superconducting Qubits by Google last month.
any idea in terms of algo & commercial use, how have the movement to adapting quantum computing resources for high computing need being?

For example, what does being able to do non-Aberlian anyons allow us to calculate?

Nothing, it was just a digital simulation of non-Abelian anyons. AKA a paper that is published purely because they have access to a "high qubit quantum computer".

Now if we could actually create non-Abelian anyons, then thats a whole different story.

There's no commercial application of simulating non-Abelian anyons yet so the purpose of the research is to understand the braiding structure in superconducting processors in this case (or cold atoms for which you'll need an atom based quantum computer). For that you need to create and control non-Abelian quantum state on qubit systems, the more qubits the better, to build topological quantum computer. Topological quantum computer has inherent advantages over other approaches due to low noise because the noise reduction algorithms are more efficient in topological system.

So far apart from Tsinghua and Google, Honeywell/Quantinuum also did a non-Abelian anyon simulation upto 27 qubits but they did last month in trapped ion quantum computer. This r&d basically took off in last 2 months because prior to that you couldn't create and control non-Abelian quantum state on qubit systems but now you can. So topological quantum computer is gradually taking off.

update on the quantum computing situation at China Mobile. As you know, Origin Quantum signed up at end of last year. It sounds like QC has already been put to use in China Mobile network for antenna parameter optimization of base stations

We will see how this goes from here, but putting QC in commercial usage this early on is bound to create feedback loop that will speed up developing talent needed to use QC

look at this. China Mobile completed verification testing for its various 5G network scheduling, optimization & signal processing related tasks

It did this with QBoson & Origin Quantum

China Mobile is using distributed Quantum algorithm so they can do this across multiple quantum computers

anyone know about this company?

looks like they started off in the quantum communication, but have now moved toward creating ion trap Quantum computers but distributed? I guess with this, you are basically linking together multiple ion trap units to have more qubits?

I doubt distributed low fidelity qubits is useful at all, seems like a mash combination of distributed computing and quantum computing hype. Potentially good way to raise money from unprofessional investors to subsidized Quantum community, but not realistic at all for quantum computation.

Looks like CETC has joined China Mobile on its quantum computing cloud platform

So far CETC is able to produce machines with 20+ qubits. CETC joins china mobiles's 5 mounains project. It remains to bd seen how ths works out because China mobile cloud has already signed up many partners.
