We realize quantum computational advantage in a Gaussian Boson Sampling (GBS) experiment. We inject 25 two mode squeezed states into a 100-mode ultralow-loss interferometer with full connectivity and random matrix. We rule out thermal states, distinguishable photons, and uniform distribution hypotheses. This GBS machine can sample 14 orders of magnitude faster than classical supercomputer.
