Hardware Lottery: There is Cerebras, attempts of optical networking and interconnects. So I guess there is a bit of variety out there.
With the Tomahawk Ultra, Broadcom has a switch ASIC with 51.2 Tb/sec of aggregate bandwidth that runs the Ethernet protocol and delivers 250 nanosecond port-to-port hop latency and can push through 77 billion PPS. That is twice the PPS at the same small packet sizes common in HPC as the 102.4 Tb/sec Tomahawk 6 switch ASICs from Broadcom, which have a latency of somewhere between 600 nanoseconds and 700 nanoseconds for these packet sizes.

IBM Quantum: In the last months, there have been many breakthroughs but I still dont see any real application. This is also quite beyond me so maybe I am missing the plot.
