ibm_oslo Grants Users Access to 7 Free Qubits Until it was retired, ibmq_16_melbourne offered then-IBMQ users access to a 14-qubit quantum computer absolutely for free. It was even upgraded to 15 qubits shortly before its retirement. But, then, all of a sudden, free accounts could only access 5-qubit devices and the 1-qubit ibmq_armonk. Three days ago, IBM Quantum reversed course a bit. Users may now access the 7-qubit ibm_oslo for free. What can you do with two more qubits? Quite a bit, quite frankly.
