The biggest obstacle to quantum computing is… noise?

Written by Catalina Sparleanu on . Posted in Quantum Computing, Technology.

We spoke to Jessica Pointing, a world-renowned quantum computing expert and Harvard graduate currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Quantum Computing from Stanford University. Among the interesting insight she shared with us, she explained how various types of noise can affect quantum computations and what can be done to eliminate or avoid the resulting errors. In the quantum context, ‘noise’...

Visualization of molecular simulations
What can we do with the near-term quantum devices that we currently have? What are the benefits that they bring, and what is their future potential? Is it possible for the actual NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) devices to further advance the fields of material and drug discovery through complex molecular simulations and modelling that are difficult to generate on a classical computer? These...
