IBM Quantum breaks the 100‑qubit processor barrier | IBM Quantum unveiled Eagle, a 127-qubit quantum processor. Eagle is leading quantum computers into a new era — we’ve launched a quantum processor that has pushed us beyond the 100-qubit barrier. We anticipate that, with Eagle, our users will be able to explore uncharted computational territory — and experience a key milestone on the path towards practical quantum computation.

Quantum Computing and Quantum Algorithms in AI | Quantum computing and quantum mechanics are different things. You can be good at one without knowing anything about the other. For quantum computing, we can abstract all of the hardware and properties of the particles and just represent them as a qubit. Source: INSPIRIT AI. Quantum Computing and Quantum Algorithms in AI…
Azure Quantum drives data storage improvements | As organizations continue to struggle to maximize storage utilization and optimize analyzing massive amounts of data, Microsoft is upping its focus on the “high promise of quantum technology,” Daniel Stocker, program manager, Azure Quantum technology, told VentureBeat.
