Are we prepared for the deployment of a functional quantum computer? This week, Technology Now is returning to the topic of post quantum cryptography. We ask why the deadline for migrating to PQC enabled systems has been moved up, we discover what a quantum computer actually needs to be cryptographically relevant, and we pose the question: when it comes to migrating your systems to quantum resistant forms of encryption, could it already be too late for some people to start?This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Sam Jarrell look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations.
This week, we speak with IQM CEO and Co-Founder Jan Goetz, and Peter Ort, CEO and Co-Chairman of Real Asset Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:RAAQ) about their $1.7 billion dollar combination, announced in February. As more quantum computing companies go public via SPACs, the industry is going global. Jan explains why IQM has based its own business model on selling quantum computing hardware and why he believes this enhances the company's pipeline over time. Peter lays out the Real Asset's team long engagement in the quantum computing space and why it chose IQM as the next big play in this emerging technology.

What will the enterprise of the future actually look like, and which technologies deserve attention beyond the hype cycle? In today's episode, I sit down with Yaad Oren, Global Head of SAP Research & Innovation and Managing Director of SAP Labs US, for a fascinating conversation about the technologies that could shape business over the next decade. Leading SAP's global research and innovation efforts, Yaad works at the intersection of academia, startups, venture capital, and enterprise technology, identifying emerging technologies before they reach the mainstream. His team explores everything from next-generation AI and voice interfaces to quantum computing, robotics, future data platforms, and new cloud architectures. We discuss why voice AI could become the primary interface for enterprise software, allowing employees to interact with business systems as naturally as they would with a colleague. Yaad also explains how quantum computing is already showing promise in complex supply chain optimization challenges and why robotics is moving beyond manufacturing floors into logistics, inspection, hospitality, and customer-facing environments. The conversation also explores one of the less talked about drivers of innovation: the role universities play in shaping the technologies businesses will eventually depend on. Yaad shares how SAP works closely with academic institutions around the world to identify breakthroughs while they are still emerging from research labs, long before they become commercial products. We also discuss SAP's vision for the autonomous enterprise, where AI assistants orchestrate teams of specialized agents across finance, supply chain, sales, and operations. Rather than replacing decision-makers, these systems are designed to automate routine work and allow people to focus on higher-value activities. Perhaps most importantly, Yaad offers practical advice for business leaders trying to prepare for the next wave of innovation without chasing every trend. His message is clear: build a strong data foundation, stay informed about emerging technologies, and create a culture that is willing to experiment. If you've ever wondered what technologies might shape enterprise software five to ten years from now, this episode offers a rare glimpse into the research, partnerships, and ideas that are already influencing that future. What emerging technology do you believe will have the biggest impact on your industry over the next decade? Share your thoughts and join the conversation.

Anthony Ginsberg, CEO of GinsGlobal Index Fund, recently spoke with Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the strong performance of the Tech Megatrend Fund and the powerful global technology trends that continue to drive growth across artificial intelligence, cloud computing, cybersecurity, robotics, quantum computing, and other emerging innovation sectors. Ginsberg highlighted that the fund has delivered a gain of approximately 27% year-to-date and recently achieved a new all-time high, reflecting strong investor demand for exposure to transformative technologies shaping the future economy. He attributed much of the fund's success to its diversified investment approach, which provides broad participation across multiple high-growth technology segments rather than concentrating heavily in a handful of mega-cap stocks. Unlike many technology-focused indices that derive a significant portion of their performance from the so-called Magnificent Seven technology giants, the Tech Megatrend Fund employs an equally weighted strategy across ten distinct technology subthemes. According to Ginsberg, this structure allows investors to gain exposure to a wider range of innovative companies and emerging opportunities while reducing reliance on a small group of dominant market leaders. The discussion also highlighted the increasingly global nature of technological innovation. Ginsberg noted that strong contributions have come not only from the United States but also from key international markets such as South Korea, Japan, and China. These regions continue to produce innovative companies operating in areas ranging from semiconductors and robotics to artificial intelligence and advanced manufacturing technologies. Among the sectors generating the greatest excitement, Ginsberg pointed to quantum computing, defense technology, cybersecurity, and cloud infrastructure. He noted that cloud computing remains one of the fastest-growing segments within the broader technology landscape, supported by substantial investments from hyperscale providers and rising demand for data processing, storage, and AI-related workloads. Artificial intelligence remained a central focus of the conversation. Ginsberg described the current wave of AI investment as one of the most significant technological transformations in decades, with opportunities extending far beyond chip manufacturers and software developers. Ginsberg also emphasized the role of developing economies in driving future technology adoption. In some cases, emerging markets are embracing AI and cloud-based technologies at an even faster pace than more mature economies, leveraging digital infrastructure to improve productivity, enhance services, and accelerate economic development. #TechMegatrendETF, #AnthonyGinsberg, #FourthIndustrialRevolution, #AI, #Cybersecurity, #TechMegatrends #CloudComputing #Cybersecurity #QuantumComputing #TechnologyInvesting #Innovation #Robotics #GlobalMarkets #FutureTech

Sebastian Hassinger, host of The New Quantum Era podcast and author of a new book by the same name, is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Sebastian and Yuval have much in common beyond their work in quantum: both are podcasters, neither holds a PhD, and both are authors of new books — Sebastian's The New Quantum Era and Yuval's Quantum Bits, the Comic Book Guide to Quantum Computing. In a conversation more symmetric than the typical episode, they compare notes on the motivation and process of writing these books, the challenge of explaining quantum computing to non-physicists, and debate Hassinger's modality forecast. They also discuss their hypothetical dinner guests from the quantum greats, and much more.Get the books at:www.QuantumBitsComics.com/buywww.TheNewQuantumEra.com
Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman cover Daniel's acquisition of Enterprise Technology Research, IBM's historic $15 billion single-day commitment spanning quantum and open-source security, Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.8, and the heaviest single earnings night of the season featuring Dell, Marvell, Salesforce, Synopsys, Snowflake, HP, and Micron crossing $1 trillion in market cap. The handpicked topics for this week are: Anthropic Releases Claude Opus 4.8: Six Weeks After 4.7 Anthropic dropped Opus 4.8 just six weeks after 4.7, claiming it surpasses GPT-5.5 and Gemini 3.1 Pro on agentic coding, knowledge work, and computer use. Benchmark improvements across the board: agentic coding up from 64.3% to 69.2%, knowledge work from 1753 to 1890, agentic computer use from 82.8% to 83.4%. Three new features ship alongside it: Dynamic Workflows for multi-subagent orchestration inside Claude Code, Effort Control for managing token spend, and mid-task system messages via the API. Fast mode is now 2.5x faster and 3x cheaper. Pat's honest take: what it says on paper is good, particularly on tool triggering and citation precision, but he has lost significant trust in the company and is watching closely. (The Decode) IBM Commits $10 Billion to Quantum: The Largest Single Quantum Bet in History IBM announced a $10 billion commitment over five years targeting a large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computer by 2029, landing the same day as the $5 billion Project Lightwell announcement for a single-day IBM strategic commitment of $15 billion. Pat has been calling 2029 to 2031 as the realistic commercial quantum window and calls this the strongest single corporate financial signal yet that the timeline is real. Daniel's framing: IBM wants to be the NVIDIA of quantum, and with a $10 billion commitment, it's sending a flare to the entire industry that pure-play quantum companies cannot compete at this balance sheet level. (The Decode) IBM and Red Hat Launch Project Lightwell: $5B to Secure Open-Source Software IBM and Red Hat committed $5 billion and a global force of 20,000 engineers to secure open-source software for enterprises through frontier agentic AI, anchored by 11 of the largest US and Canadian banks including Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Mastercard, and Visa. Pat's read: this is the productization answer to Anthropic Mythos. Mythos found the vulnerabilities. Lightwell is the industrial-scale patching and validation layer enterprises can actually buy on a subscription. Daniel adds that IBM is flexing its engineering talent base as a premium strategic asset, a direct counter to the narrative that AI replaces engineers. (The Decode) Anthropic Project Glasswing: 23,000 Vulnerabilities Found Across 1,000 OSS Projects Anthropic's Claude Mythos scanned more than 1,000 widely deployed open-source projects and surfaced approximately 23,000 candidate vulnerabilities, with 1,094 confirmed as critical severity. The Cyber Verification Program now gates the strongest cyber-capable Claude variant behind vetted defenders only. While the tool creates real value, the surface of attack will likely grow as fast as any tool built to defend it. (The Decode) Anthropic in Talks to Run Claude on Microsoft Maia 200 CNBC and The Information reported Microsoft is in active negotiations to supply Anthropic with its custom Maia 200 inference chip, which would make Anthropic the only frontier lab simultaneously running production workloads on four distinct silicon stacks: NVIDIA, AWS Trainium, Google TPU, and Microsoft Maia. Pat's context: Maia 200 delivers 30% better tokens per dollar than the latest Azure fleet per Satya Nadella, and this deal would be Maia's first major external deployment. Daniel's read: what can be built will be sold right now, and Anthropic chasing every available compute source is simply the structural reality of growing at 80x when you planned for 10x. (The Decode) The Flip: Is AI CapEx Too Expensive to Earn Its Return? Pat takes the affirmative. With $725 billion in hyperscaler CapEx tracking for 2026, likely $1 trillion next year, memory has become the choke point making it even more expensive, and open-source models have closed enough of the quality gap for most enterprise tasks that the premium of frontier APIs is increasingly hard to justify. A recent Signal65 white paper shows on-prem payback at 18 months. Daniel's counter: Dell just booked $24 billion in AI orders in a single quarter. Agentforce crossed $1 billion ARR at 169% growth. NVIDIA guided to $91 billion. Only 20% of enterprises are using AI and only 2% of consumers. Both hosts admitted off the flip their notes looked nearly identical. (The Flip) Micron Crosses $1 Trillion Market Cap Micron became the 12th US company ever to cross $1 trillion in market cap, surging 19% on May 26th as UBS raised its price target to $1,625, implying a $1.8 trillion market cap. Samsung's Q1 memory ASP jumped 146% year over year. DRAM spot prices spiked 55 to 60% quarter over quarter. Daniel has been pounding this call since sub-$100 and calls it a cycle elongated beyond anything seen in the 27 prior memory cycles, driven by HBM capacity reallocation away from consumer DRAM creating structural shortage. (Bulls and Bears) Dell Technologies Q1 FY27: The Biggest Enterprise AI Infrastructure Print of 2026 Record $43.8 billion revenue, up 88% year over year, crushing the $35.7 billion consensus by $8 billion. AI-optimized servers at $16.1 billion, up 757% year over year. $24.4 billion in AI orders booked in a single quarter. FY27 AI server revenue guide raised from $50 billion to $60 billion. Non-GAAP EPS of $4.86 beat the $2.96 consensus by 64%. Stock up 18% after hours. Pat's framing: Dell was very clear about what they were going to do. Rack engineering, sales, and service. The basics. And they executed the basics at an extraordinary level while building a special relationship with NVIDIA who views Dell as a market maker for both enterprise and NeoCloud. Daniel's add: play nice and win. Michael Dell navigated the political landscape brilliantly and pulled the entire Dell brand along with him. (Bulls and Bears) Marvell Technology Q1 FY27: Record Revenue, Data Center at 76% of Mix Record $2.418 billion revenue, up 28% year over year. Data center at $1.833 billion, up 27% year over year, now 76% of total revenue. Q2 guide of $2.7 billion at midpoint accelerates growth to 35% year over year. Operating cash flow a record $638.8 million. Daniel went on TV and said it's "written in the stars," arguing the market had misunderstood this one for too long by conflating its custom AI ASIC story with the full breadth of its connectivity and networking portfolio. Pat's closing: the shorts are eating it now and the custom AI ASIC versus merchant GPU debate is finally settling into the right answer, which is both in lockstep. (Bulls and Bears) Salesforce Q1 FY27: Agentforce Crosses $1 Billion ARR Revenue $11.13 billion, up 13% year over year. Non-GAAP EPS of $3.88 crushed the $3.12 consensus by 24%. Agentforce ARR crossed $1 billion, up 169% year over year, with 28.6 trillion tokens processed, up 152% quarter over quarter. 50% of Agentforce bookings came from existing customers expanding. Daniel flagged the $25 billion accelerated buyback funded by new debt as an interesting signal worth watching. Pat's bottom line: it's not perfect, but certainly no "SaaSpocalypse" in those numbers. (Bulls and Bears) Synopsys Q2 FY26: First Full Quarter With Ansys Integrated Revenue $2.276 billion, up 42% year over year, beating consensus. Non-GAAP EPS of $3.35 beat $3.15. FY26 guide raised to $9.665 billion midpoint. Daniel's framing: every chip runs through Synopsys tools, and the Ansys addition makes it the full-stack co-design platform Jensen Huang keeps talking about. Synopsys is not just the pick and shovel of current AI silicon. It is the pick and shovel of quantum, robotics, and space as well. (Bulls and Bears) Snowflake Q1 FY27: Strongest Sequential Dollar Growth in Company History Product revenue $1.33 billion, up 34% year over year, the strongest sequential dollar growth in Snowflake history. Net revenue retention 126%. FY27 product revenue guide raised to $5.84 billion. Natoma acquisition announced for secure agentic enterprise connectivity. New $6 billion multi-year AWS commitment. Daniel's closing: proprietary unique data is the real moat of the agentic era, and that data has to live somewhere. It is going to go to platforms like Snowflake. (Bulls and Bears) HP Inc. Q2 FY26: Eight Straight Quarters of Growth With AI PCs at 44% of Shipments Revenue $14.4 billion, up 9% year over year, the company marks its eighth consecutive quarter of top-line growth. Non-GAAP EPS of $0.86 beat the prior guide. Personal Systems at $10.2 billion, up 13%, with 30% operating profit growth. AI PCs jumped from 35% to 44% of shipments quarter over quarter, with HP guiding to 60 to 70% next fiscal year. FY26 EPS guide raised. Pat's note: they still need a permanent CEO, which would help investors sleep better at night. Daniel's add: the real explosive moment for device companies comes when AI moves to the edge and enterprises shift from expensive frontier model consumption to on-device inference. (Bulls and Bears) Everpure Q1 FY27: Record Revenue, Rebrand Complete Record revenue of $1.1 billion, up 35% year over year. Product revenue $577 million, up 55%. Subscription ARR at $2 billion. FY27 guide raised to $4.41 to $4.51 billion. Pure Storage officially completed its rebrand to Everpure. Daniel's emerging thesis: the agentic era has focused enormous attention on memory and compute, but after the inference runs, the data has to sit somewhere. Storage has not seen its full inflection yet and Everpure is well positioned when that wave arrives.

Quantum technology is at a pivotal moment. No longer the faraway dream of scientists, the field is rapidly developing across the world, fueled by major investments from governments, industry, and universities racing to lead its promising future. But what exactly is quantum technology? And how will it affect our lives today—and in the coming decades? A recent event at the University of Chicago, hosted by Big Brains in partnership with 1440, sought to demystify quantum, separate the hype from reality and explore how it could transform our daily lives. Three renowned scientists—Prof. David Awschalom, Fred Chong and Nadya Mason—discussed how UChicago was leading innovative research, in partnership with its affiliated labs Argonne and Fermilab, as well as other universities across the Midwest. They explained how quantum has the potential to revolutionize our world—from creating unhackable communications to supercharging quantum computers to detecting disease at the cellular level. They discussed the challenges as well as the opportunities, especially for the next generation of quantum engineers and scientists needed to make these dreams a reality.

Could quantum computing become the next AI - or is Wall Street already getting ahead of itself? Hosted by Michelle Martin with guest Cheng Chye Hsern, Head of Investment at Providend, this episode explores whether quantum computing could become the next transformational technology theme after fresh US government support sparked a rally in quantum stocks. Michelle and Cheng examine record S&P 500 profit margins and ask whether US corporate earnings remain genuinely resilient or increasingly dependent on a handful of AI winners. They unpack South Korea's remarkable stock market surge, Samsung's return to a US$1 trillion valuation and why Asia is becoming central to the global AI supply chain. The conversation also looks at rising US Treasury yields, the risks of chasing technology hype and what Singapore investors should watch as the STI consolidates around the 5,000 level. Finally, they discuss whether capital is rotating back into growth markets or if Singapore's next rally may still lie ahead.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Quantum computing is approaching an inflection point, with dozens of companies racing to be the first to achieve widespread commercialization. In this episode of the Tech Disruptors podcast, QuEra Computing Chief Commercial Officer Yuval Boger joins Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Jake Silverman to discuss why neutral atom quantum computing could prove the most successful among a variety of approaches and unlock scalable, lower-cost quantum systems. They also explore what quantum computing is, technological hurdles that exist today and the applications where quantum is likely to have the largest impact — potentially in just a few years — including drug discovery, logistics and AI.
Philosophy of Physics Meets Quantum Engineering with Elise CrullWhy This Episode MattersElise Crull is Associate Professor of Philosophy at CCNY and the CUNY Graduate Center, co-author with Guido Bacciagaluppi of The Einstein Paradox (Cambridge, 2024), and was named a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2025 for her archival work recovering voices like Grete Hermann from the foundations of quantum mechanics. She was also one of the speakers on Helgoland in June 2025 for the centenary of quantum mechanics — opening, as Sebastian notes, by thanking the organizers for the courage to invite a philosopher.This conversation matters because the truce between physicists and philosophers of physics is over. Quantum computing has turned interpretive questions — what counts as entanglement, what decoherence really is, whether causal order can be put in superposition — into engineering questions with budget consequences. If you build, fund, or write about quantum hardware, this episode will sharpen how you hear the words being used around you.SponsorThis episode is brought to you by Outshift, Cisco's incubation engine. The need for computational power is rapidly increasing in every sector. From drug discovery to material innovation to complex financial modeling, classical systems are reaching their absolute limits.

We make choices about how to encounter it."On decoherence vs. noise: Crull notes the question physicists at Duke recently raised with her — how do you tell the difference between decoherence and noise? — and stresses that one is something you shield against, the other is something else entirely. Error correction strategy depends on the distinction.On what really bothered Einstein: Despite the popular story, "He wasn't as concerned about determinism as you would think." What Einstein wanted was a theory whose mathematics had a one-to-one mapping to individual systems with their own states — and entanglement broke that.On indefinite causal order: Experimentalists often equate causation with signaling constraints, but "those are very different things." The superposition-of-causal-orders results may reveal less about causation than about the fact that temporal ordering itself remains defined in irreducibly classical ways.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we're diving into some of the most compelling stories and trends shaping the industry. Daiichi Sankyo has unveiled a bold five-year business plan with an eye on rising to become a top-five global oncology leader by 2035. This ambition is driven by a $1.3 billion initiative focused on antibody-drug conjugates, or ADCs, which are targeted cancer therapies. These plans highlight a strategic emphasis on oncology and operational efficiencies designed to maintain competitive advantage in a rapidly evolving market. Meanwhile, CSL Limited faces a more challenging landscape, adjusting its revenue projections and facing a significant impairment related to its acquisition of Vifor Pharma. These financial challenges underline the risks inherent in large-scale acquisitions within the pharmaceutical sector, necessitating a reassessment of strategic priorities and investments in R&D. Regulatory developments continue to be pivotal, with Partner Therapeutics' bispecific antibody Bizengri gaining FDA national priority designation for rare bile duct cancer. This underscores the FDA's dedication to expediting critical therapies through its National Priority Pilot program, aiming to bring life-saving treatments to underserved populations quickly. However, regulatory uncertainty looms with President Donald Trump's reported plan to dismiss FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, which could impact the agency's leadership and agenda. Additionally, a Supreme Court ruling has temporarily reinstated telemedicine access to mifepristone, an abortion pill, spotlighting the ongoing debates about reproductive healthcare accessibility through telemedicine. In research news, Novo Nordisk's collaboration with an AI biotech firm marks a strategic shift aimed at rescuing its Parkinson's cell therapy program. This partnership highlights the increasing role of artificial intelligence in drug development, particularly for revitalizing stalled projects using advanced technological applications. On the clinical trial front, Inhibrx's midphase results are promising for their OX40 agonist combined with Merck's Keytruda, showing doubled response rates in cancer patients. Such advancements underscore the potential of combination therapies in oncology and are likely to draw more investment interest from major players like Merck. Amgen's investment in a quantum technology firm poised for an IPO represents another exciting frontier. The application of quantum computing in drug discovery could revolutionize computational biology by accelerating therapeutic discoveries and improving precision medicine approaches. The biotech sector is also seeing financial maneuvers with quantum tech firms planning IPOs following investments from companies like Amgen. This signals a growing interest in leveraging quantum technology for breakthroughs in drug discovery. In Alzheimer's research, a novel gene therapy study presents an innovative method for clearing amyloid plaques from mouse brains without crossing the blood-brain barrier. By sending a protective gene to the liver, researchers achieved systemic plaque clearance—an approach that could revolutionize treatment strategies if successful in human trials. A new development in diagnostics involves a blood test predicting patient responses to GLP-1 receptor agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy. As these drugs become popular for weight management, such diagnostics could optimize outcomes by identifying patients most likely to benefit. Omada Health reported a 42% revenue increase in Q1, reflecting the expanding digital health solutions market. Their collaboration with Eli Lilly's employer weight loss program indicates rising demand for comprehensive health strategies integrating pharmacotherapy and digital health platforms.

Why This Episode MattersNiels Bultink earned his PhD at QuTech under Leonardo DiCarlo, where he performed some of the first real-time feedback experiments on solid-state qubits — the foundational primitive behind quantum error correction. He spun Qblox out of TU Delft in 2018, and has grown it to roughly 140 people serving 150+ customers worldwide, mostly on revenue rather than venture capital, before raising a $26M Series A in 2024.This conversation matters now because the goalposts for useful quantum computing have moved closer in the last 12 months. Recent estimates suggest breaking RSA may need ~10,000–100,000 qubits, not tens of millions — and at that scale, the control stack is no longer a lab afterthought. It is a strategic supply chain question, which is why the DOE just picked Qblox to manufacture Fermilab's QICK platform domestically. If you care about how quantum computers actually get built — the layer between the qubit and the software — this is the episode for you.SponsorThis episode is brought to you by Outshift, Cisco's incubation engine. The need for computational power is rapidly increasing in every sector. From drug discovery to material innovation to complex financial modeling, classical systems are reaching their absolute limits.

It's a nice analogy, but it doesn't hold entirely. The qubits are just the bottom layer of the stack — and all the other layers are also crucial to develop."On flexibility as a requirement, not a feature: Pre-compiled, rigid sequences can't support quantum error correction. Adaptive, real-time control flows aren't a performance upgrade — they're "a basic need for this new era of quantum fault tolerance."On the moving goalposts for useful quantum computing: A year ago, breaking RSA looked like tens of millions of qubits. Recent estimates put it at 10,000–100,000 — "a factor hundred smaller what we now think we need versus a year ago."On the future of FPGAs: FPGAs are the right substrate for today's flexibility, but already at current production volumes, "it makes more sense to put things in chips, in ASICs."On the Dutch ecosystem: What sets Delft apart isn't a slogan about ecosystems but a value-chain culture — companies that focus on one layer, work together, and grow on customer revenue rather than venture rounds.Stay in the EcosystemSubscribe on Apple Podcasts,

Hardware-Faithful Digital Twins for Quantum Computing with Izhar MedalsyIzhar Medalsy is not a career qubit theorist. His path runs from a physical chemistry PhD and an ETH Zurich postdoc in atomic force microscopy and ternary nanoscale logic, through productizing scientific instruments at Bruker, through building one of the fastest resin 3D printers on the market, into co-founding Quantum Elements in 2023 with Daniel Lidar (USC) and Amir Yacoby (Harvard). That arc — nanoscale measurement scientist turned deep-tech operator — shapes how he thinks about the simulation gap in quantum computing.The conversation lands at a specific moment. In April 2026, Quantum Elements published a joint result with AWS, USC, and Harvard simulating a distance-7 rotated surface code with 97 physical qubits using full quantum master equations on AWS HPC7a, and announced a deeper collaboration with Rigetti Computing on next-generation superconducting processors. If you care about how error correction strategies, decoders, and pulse-level controls actually get developed before they ever touch hardware, this episode is for you.EPISODE SPONSORThis episode is brought to you by Outshift, Cisco's incubation engine.

You cannot build the control stack without modeling where you are starting from and where you are trying to get to.Insight: The brute-force ceiling for open-system master-equation simulation is roughly 16 qubits. Stochastic compression layered on Quantum Monte Carlo is what let Quantum Elements reach distance-7 surface code at 97 qubits — exploiting sparsity rather than enumerating the full state space.On logical qubits: "We cannot assume that logical qubits will be noise-free." Error suppression strategies developed at the physical level need to be re-derived at the logical level, and digital twins are how you train and test those strategies before hardware.Insight: The most interesting downstream story may not be simulation itself but AI decoders trained on digital-twin-generated data — small enough to run at the edge, fast enough to live inside the real-time quantum-classical loop.Related EpisodesEpisode 52 — Quantum noise with Daniel Lidar — Quantum Elements' co-founder and CSO on the noise suppression and error correction foundat...
Et si nous étions en fait dans une simulation depuis le début ? C'est la question qui obsède Sam Altman, Elon Musk et les plus grands cerveaux de la Silicon Valley depuis plus de 15 ans. Chercheurs, milliardaires, astrophysiciens, tous ont employé des ressources colossales pour y répondre. Tous se sont heurtés à la même limite : celle de notre propre conscience.Est-ce que le monde tel qu'on le perçoit, tel qu'on le vit, tel qu'on l'expérimente est vraiment réel ? Ou bien sommes-nous manipulés par une entité supérieure comme dans un jeu vidéo ? Et si c'était le cas, nos capacités cognitives nous permettraient-elles vraiment de le percevoir ? Loïc Hecht tombe sur cette théorie en 2016 et sa vie bascule. Journaliste de métier, plutôt pragmatique, il pense d'abord à une lubie de plus des milliardaires déconnectés de la Valley.Puis il creuse. Pendant 10 ans, il sillonne le globe, de la frénésie de Palo Alto aux temples bouddhistes indiens pour trouver des pistes de réponse. Et aujourd'hui, il livre ce travail colossal dans son nouvel ouvrage “La simulation” qui bouleverse tous ceux qui l'ont entre les mains.Ce qu'il a découvert au fil de cette enquête est proprement vertigineux. Et sa conclusion rigoureusement documentée, impossible à balayer d'un revers de main ou d'un simple “c'est une théorie de complotistes”, est sans appel : il est aujourd'hui impossible de réfuter l'hypothèse de la simulation avec certitude.Vous ne sortirez intact ni de ce livre ni de cet épisode.

What does the quantum industry actually look like right now, beneath all the hype? In this episode of Eye on AI, Craig Smith sits down with Celia Merzbacher, Executive Director of the Quantum Economic Development Consortium (QED-C), to break down the real state of quantum technology in 2025. From market growth and enterprise readiness to the growing intersection with AI, Celia brings a grounded insider perspective on where the industry stands and what comes next. Celia explains why the quantum market is growing faster than even the companies inside it predicted, with revenues rising roughly 27% year over year and actual numbers consistently beating forecasts. She also makes clear that the future is not quantum replacing classical computers. It is hybrid systems combining both to solve problems that simply cannot be solved today, with early use cases already emerging in pharmaceuticals, energy, finance, and defense. We also get into quantum sensing, the most underrated corner of the quantum world. From biomedical imaging already in clinical trials to quantum clocks powering GPS and financial transaction timestamping, sensing is already partially commercialized and quietly reshaping industries most people have never connected to quantum at all. Finally, Celia addresses the AI question directly. Will AI replace quantum? No. The two are complementary. AI is already accelerating quantum hardware design and algorithm discovery, and quantum may eventually improve how AI systems are trained. She closes with a clear message for enterprise leaders: the transition to quantum will not be a migration. It will be a paradigm shift, and the time to start preparing is now.
