2021/11/03

Ever notice that giant tech companies seem to receive press coverage for privacy concerns as often as they do for new product launches? How did we end up in this world of playing catch-up with the ethical implications of technology? Quantum computing is still relatively new, but it will impact machine learning, encryption and other areas that will have major repercussions on all our futures. Can we avoid the mistakes of the past and build ethics into this field? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis

Compared to a couple of years ago, we’re spoiled by how many real quantum computers we can access online today. Some systems are available through multi-hardware cloud sites like Microsoft Azure Quantum and Amazon Braket; some through individual system manufacturer’s own sites. As more machines come online, and more businesses compete for quantum compute time, things are starting to get a little complicated. Strangeworks is working on making it easy for customers to control access and costs, all

One of the hottest jobs in quantum computing in the coming years will be that of software engineer. The need for translating complex business needs to quantum algorithms and code will only grow. In this episode, we talk to a software engineer who’s had a unique career path. Anna Hughes earned her Ph.D. in stellar astrophysics and went from working on the potential habitability of exoplanets to working on a software platform that can help companies with portfolio optimization, derivative pricing,

Technologies like interconnect and improved memory for repeaters will enable quantum computers to accelerate in power and connectivity in the future. Q-NEXT is one of five Quantum Information Science Research Centers funded by the U.S. Department of Energy to help develop these technologies, to the tune of $115 million. The DOE is focused on strengthening the nation’s leadership position in the quantum arms race, but the technologies will benefit all areas of the industry. Join host Konstantinos

2021/09/08

Classical computing cannot simulate more than about 50 qubits. What does it mean that we now have a quantum computer with, gasp, 100 qubits? ColdQuanta found a way to beat giants like IBM to this amazing feat, and they did it with a new approach that may lead to smaller quantum computing systems that one day could be rack-mountable. Like a reverse microwave, the new Hilbert computer uses lasers to slow down particle vibrations to make them “cold” and able to act as qubits. Hilbert even touts low

Open source has helped revolutionize classical computing. What can it do for quantum? EPiQC is a collaboration across five universities that is developing a range of open source tools to connect algorithms to quantum computers, including programming languages, compilers, optimizers, and more. They’re also working on benchmarking, which is much needed as different types of quantum systems come online, as well as helping future quantum programmers enter the workforce.

As we begin training and building up the quantum workforce of the future, it’s clear the precious few developers working in these early days will need some help making the most of their time. We’re starting to see a few players in the quantum development tool market. Instead of worrying about gate-level coding, the Quantum Algorithm Design (QAD) platform from Classiq lets developers take high-level descriptions and turn them into quantum circuits that can run on any hardware target. Is QAD the new

Trapped ion and transmon qubits are dominant in the world of gate-based quantum computers. In this episode, we take a look at a new type of system that uses electrons in superfluid helium. The approach promises over 1-GHz gate speed, spin-state qubits with over 1-second coherence times, and high connectivity or “gateability.” Will these machines also be linkable or modular? We also discuss funding for quantum startups and whether we dodged a “quantum winter.” Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a

The cryptographic apocalypse could be under five years away, depending on interconnect technologies that might allow quantum computers to work together. Is now the time to start planning for, or even implementing, post-quantum safe cryptography? It all depends on the shelf life of the data you’re trying to protect.

Finding a specific use case that proves quantum advantage will radically kickstart the quantum computing industry. While universal gate-based quantum computers with error correction are a few years away, annealers – quantum systems from D-Wave – are proving excellent at specific types of problems today, especially in a hybrid approach aided by classical computers. Just how excellent are these systems? We might finally have an example of portfolio optimization that provides a thousandfold boost in
