Classiq Technologies, Deloitte Tohmatsu and Mitsubishi said they have compressed quantum circuits by up to 97% in a move that reduces error rates and may accelerate practical enterprise use cases.
Google launched its latest quantum chip called Willow with strong error correction improvements and outlined its roadmap for quantum computing.
Amazon Web Services launched a services unit to help customers adopt quantum computing. Combined with Amazon Braket, AWS is positioning itself to be a trusted neutral party in quantum computing much as it has done with generative AI.
Quantum computing vendors are all bullish on hybrid supercomputing approaches that'll play well with the generative AI boom.
IBM launched a series of Qiskit software services to go along with its IBM Quantum Heron-based systems. The effort comes as IBM aims to meld quantum computing and classical computing today while aiming for quantum advantage later.
IBM has installed its second-gen IBM Quantum Heron processors in its Poughkeepsie data center as it builds out its quantum infrastructure.
Microsoft and Quantinuum said they have created 12 highly reliable logical qubits by combining Azure Quantum's qubit virtualization system to Quantinuum's H2 trapped-ion quantum computer. Microsoft also said it would work with Atom Computing to add a new quantum system to Azure Quantum.
Quantum Brilliance and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) said they will collaborate on a platform that couples quantum computing with high-performance computing (HPC).
IonQ outlined it roadmap for its quantum computing stack as well as various use cases as it aims to create enterprise grade infrastructure that could offload GPU workloads if successful.
Quantum computing software provider Classiq has been busy forging partnerships with everyone from Nvidia to BMW to Citi as it aims to expand enterprise use cases with a software layer that abstracts the underlying hardware. We caught up with Classiq CEO Nir Minerbi to talk about quantum computing and where it's headed.
Honeywell said that the funding round was led by JPMorgan Chase with participation from Mitsui & Co., Amgen and Honeywell.
With IBM Quantum Heron, IBM is planning to use a 5x performance boost with improved error rates to build out a fleet of systems.
