There’s been much speculation about how fault-tolerant quantum computing might accelerate the power of artificial intelligence in the future. But what if those technologies switched roles? AI is already improving certain aspects of current quantum technology. Find out how businesses and verticals can start to use these techniques for real use cases in quantum sensing, simulation and migration to post-quantum cryptography.

In 1981, Richard Feynman gave a keynote that proposed simulating physics with computers. We’ve come a long way with the resulting quantum computers, and you may have heard about business use cases for them. But how much progress has been made in using the machines to understand the universe? Who better to ask than Dr. Harry Cliff from the Large Hadron Collider? He discusses how quantum computers can simulate particle interactions or handle the mind-boggling amounts of data generated at CERN. We also dive into his new book, Space Oddities.

Writing code for quantum computing always involves some layers of abstraction. Learn about QMOD, a new language that makes it easier to create working circuits and comes with some solid working use cases you can try out. Classiq makes QMOD available within its enterprise-level development tool, which you can now use for free (for non-commercial applications). Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Amir Naveh from Classiq. For more on Classiq, visit www.classiq.io/.

We’ve all tried to imagine what goes on at the quantum level, but have you ever taken a photo of interference or grabbed a snapshot of quantum tunneling? Find out how to access quantum physics as a service and experiment with Bose-Einstein Condensates, or BECs. This isn’t quantum computing, but it could lead to a whole new quantum-technology maker industry with real applications across sectors.

Quantum computing needs logical, error-corrected qubits to reach the ultimate goal of fault-tolerant systems that can change the world. Without logical qubits, we won’t be able to have production-ready business use cases that are pure quantum. Is it too early to be thinking about creating these “perfect” qubits? One company says it’s already tackling the problem with a new take on the old quantum-classical Schrödinger’s Cat thought experiment.

NIST will release the standards for post-quantum cryptography soon, and all companies will have to start taking action to become crypto-agile and replace vulnerable ciphers. One of the first steps is gathering an inventory of the cryptography used in your organization. Find out how to accomplish this, and monitor future changes you make, with AgileSec. It’s a dashboard approach to staying ahead of the looming quantum computing threat. Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Vladimir Soukharev from InfoSec Global.

2024 will be a milestone year for post-quantum cryptography, with NIST getting ready to release its new standards. We can expect proof-of-concept business use cases for quantum computing to become more common as machine fidelity and performance continue to improve. What should boards consider regarding PQC and other aspects of the quantum industry this year?

The 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots. Physics is also interested in these little marvels, and they may have a big impact in quantum computing. We need many more qubits of high quality to tackle complex business problems and use cases. How will silicon-based quantum processing units (QPUs) boost scalability for increased performance into the million-qubit realm?

We’ve done plenty of episodes where there is a piece of software or cloud platform users can try, usually for the purposes of making coding or algorithmic development easier. Coding naturally seems to be the quickest way to get involved in quantum computing, but we’ve never discussed actually building quantum hardware at home! Find out how to start learning the engineering side of quantum information science by building your own neutral atom platform for about $8,000 or less!

Quantum computing faces several scaling issues to achieve fault-tolerant systems that can solve practical business problems. We need high-fidelity interconnect to have modules or even full quantum computers work as one powerful system. And qubits could stand to run a little hotter as refrigeration gets out of hand as we add more of the sensitive little entities.
