By developing high-performance quantum light sources, the multi-photon interference has been scaled up to implement Boson sampling with up to 76 photons out of a 100-mode interferometer, which yields a Hilbert state space dimension of 10³⁰ and a rate that is 10¹⁴ faster than using the state-of-the-art simulation strategy on supercomputers. Such a demonstration of quantum computational advantage is a much-anticipated milestone for quantum computing.
