Podcast | The Quantum Many-Body Problem — with Benedikt Fauseweh of TU Dortmund University

June 12, 2024

When Richard Feynman proposed the idea of a quantum simulator or computer in 1981, he was frustrated by the limitations of classical systems. He logically suggested that if we live in a quantum world, we need a quantum device to simulate all the interactions of particles that make up reality. An excellent example of such a transistor-choking calculation is the quantum many-body problem. Have quantum computers…

Podcast | Strategic Sourcing: Gaining Advantage, Mitigating Risk – with Lucas Manganaro

June 7, 2024

Supply chain management continues to be a hot topic in countless organisations in light of ongoing geopolitical challenges, evolving impacts of climate change, new tariffs, changing labor markets, and much more. How can supply chain and procurement leaders attack these and other challenges? It starts with building and implementing a strategic sourcing strategy. Protiviti recently published a whitepaper,…

Podcast | Understanding the California Climate Laws – with Alyse Mauro Mason, Ricardo Buitron, Michael Littenberg and Marc Rotter

Podcast | Quantum AI Compression: Smaller LLMs without Losing Performance — with Multiverse

May 29, 2024

Large Language Models are … large. Forget Bitcoin and recharging electric vehicles; the grid could be toppled by powering AI in a few years. It would be optimal if AI could run on more underpowered edge devices. What if there was a quantum-inspired way to make LLMs smaller without sacrificing overall performance in combined metrics? We explore a way to do that and other advanced ideas like selectively removing…

Podcast | High-Speed Quantum Networking in NYC— with Qunnect

May 15, 2024

The phrase “quantum internet” gets tossed around a lot, usually as a placeholder for something that will fix many nonspecific issues in the future. The core concept of quantum networking is a real thing, though, and is more robust today than you might think. How does it work? How fast is it? And is it really running in the Big Apple? Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Noel Goddard from Qunnect as…

Podcast | Is Post-Quantum Cryptography at Risk?

May 1, 2024

Is post-quantum cryptography safe from quantum computing? Do we really need thousands of qubits to attack RSA? We examine some of the challenges to PQC strength and timeline that have recently emerged in scientific papers and consider what makes peer review such a crucial part of the process. Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat about the actual state of PQC and how it will affect your organisation.Papers…

Podcast | How Quantum Computing Changed Our Understanding of Science – with Lincoln Carr

April 17, 2024

While we await practical business advantage with quantum computing, has quantum information science already furthered our understanding of science? What’s the difference between a simulator and an emulator, and how does a physical quantum computer fit in? Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Lincoln Carr from Colorado School of Mines as they explore these topics, along with everything from Tensor…

Podcast | AI Meets Quantum in the Real World – with SandboxAQ

April 3, 2024

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…

Podcast | ESG and AI – with Alyse Mauro Mason, Christine Livingston and Mark Carson

March 27, 2024

Artificial intelligence, including but not limited to generative AI, has taken the world by storm over the past year, with organisations worldwide scrambling to identify where and how it can be used to strengthen their businesses and grow competitive advantage. Without question, as companies move quickly to employ these technologies, ESG issues come into play at a number of levels, from sustainability reporting to…
