After a journey of nearly 3.9 billion miles, the #OSIRISREx asteroid sample return capsule is back on Earth. Teams perform the initial safety assessment—the first persons to come into contact with this hardware since it was on the other side of the solar system.

A joint team of scientists at Quantinuum, National Institute of Standards and Technology, & Univ. of Maryland have measured the Loschmidt amplitude of the Fermi-Hubbard model using the H2-1. This research demonstrates a vital tool for understanding enigmatic phases of matter like superconductivity. quantinuum.com/news/quantinuu…

An exciting new paper on fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC): our researchers have achieved 2 milestones on the Quantinuum H1:  1) demo of all the essentials of FTQC on real hardware  2) use of 3 logically-encoded qubits  Read the announcement: quantinuum.com/news/quantinuu…

This is very impressive. Chat GPT unequivocally demonstrating an example of Pro-C creativity (from the Four C model)

A little over 3 years ago, I wrote that generative AI would threaten the agency model. Has any comms agency started to tackle this yet? prweek.com/article/169374… #pr #communications

During a solar eclipse, the gaps between leaves on trees act as multiple pinhole cameras, and each gap projects its own crescent-shaped image of the eclipsed sun onto the ground. 📹gottigreen

With the promising results of Quantum Signal Processing on Quantinuum 's H1-1 trapped-ion QPU, we continue to work on the challenges of scaling up this protocol for NISQ-era computers. Go #QuantumComputing 🚀

“…your safety and dignity are my business.”<— the very essence of humanity

Can hardly believe this is real. Beautiful modern design. The tapered pylons and hanging carriages are awesome — compare this to streets full of traffic jams

After 35 years, Black Tish finally released their first album and their second album to boot. Now bOb cOeCke is working on the first post-metal industrial album including compositions by quantum computers. Cannot wait!! youredm.com/2023/10/04/new…

On regulating AI product deployment not R&D; the compatibility of safety and openness; and the rejection of the catastrophisation of AI

Quantinuum and its industry partners are working to accelerate the advent of useful quantum computational chemistry, which has the potential to revolutionize areas such as drug discovery and next-generation material design. Learn more in this webinar: quantinuum.com/webinar/inquan…

If you’re following quantum computing developments, I strongly recommend Earl’s observations from QEC. Despite talk of quantum winter, we’re at the start of a golden age for error-correction and fault tolerance. Now is the best time to be in QC that has ever been.

Mental note New Year’s resolution to use “zugzwang” more in 2024

Large language models strongly reflect their training data, outweighing any choices in the algorithms’ structure or biases. They truly are gargantuan averaging machines, no more, no less

Delighted to announce that Harry Buhrman has joined us Quantinuum as Chief Scientist for Algorithms and Innovation. quantinuum.com/news/world-ren…
