You know that huge gold chandelier-like structure you see in videos about quantum computers? Yeah, that's just the refrigerator. Quantum computers could usher in a revolutionary transformation across industries like biology, finance, pharmaceuticals, material sciences, engineering, cyber security, and more. Thanks to their potential to solve complex problems much faster than the computers mostly used today. We're frequently told that nothing will be the same in the quantum era. But these quantum systems are ...

It's not every day you find yourself in the same room with four different quantum computers using four different types of cubits. But here at NVIDIA GTC, that's exactly the situation we find ourselves in. These things are very sci-fi, very intimidating, and very complicated. But I'm going to do my best to explain to you how they all work. So, the thing that puts the quantum in quantum computers is quantum mechanics, which is a type of physics that was developed to help explain the behavior of particles at t ...
