Podcast | Monte Carlo Simulations and Other Quantum Use Cases with QC Ware

December 1, 2021

Monte Carlo simulations have been around for quite a while in classical computing, and help companies model “what if scenarios” such as how pricing might change over time. Since 2015, the quantum computing industry has believed Monte Carlo simulations would be one of the best use cases to show quantum advantage. QC Ware was able to prove the feasibility of this approach recently, working with Goldman Sachs. And now…

Podcast | The Ethics of Quantum Computing with EeroQ

November 2, 2021

Ever notice that giant tech companies seem to get 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. During this podcast we…

Podcast | Helping Businesses Manage Quantum Computing Clouds on One Platform with Strangeworks

October 20, 2021

Compared to a couple 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.…

Podcast | From Astrophysics to Quantum Computing Algorithms: A Software Engineer’s Journey with Agnostiq

October 6, 2021

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 Dr. Anna Hughes from Agnostiq about her unique career path to quantum software engineer. Guest: Dr. Anna Hughes, Quantum Software Engineer at Agnostiq

Guest:…

Riding a Hot IPO Market – Capitalising on Opportunities and Managing Key Challenges

September 20, 2021

It has been an active, and often wild, ride in the IPO market over the past year. After a slow period during the heart of the initial COVID-19 crisis, market activity has reignited at a blistering pace, driven by optimism in the global economy and the emergence of special purpose acquisition companies, or SPACs, among other factors. There’s ample excitement right now about IPOs, but there also are areas to be…

Podcast | A 100-Qubit Quantum Computer Arrives with ColdQuanta

September 8, 2021

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 could be rack-mountable one day. Like a reverse microwave, the new Hilbert computer uses lasers to slow down particle…
