As companies race to find practical applications for quantum computers, the short term focus is on boosting machine learning
Companies are jostling to be the first to find a practical application for quantum computers — The race is on to find the first practical use for quantum computing. Tweets: @dandoll , @lilaphasia , @paullecoque , @unhedgedchatter , and @lilaphasia Tweets: Daniel Doll-Steinberg / @dandoll : The world is about to experience a jump in technology like no other Quantum is one of the foundations Quantum advantage is the next goal in the race for a new computer age | Financial Times https://www.ft.com/... InfraHopeHard / @lilaphasia : #quantum whether it was getting close to producing “commercially relevant algorithms”. https://www.ft.com/... ..few doubt that the race is now on. REALLY?COMMERCIALLY not scientific relevant? WWW/Internet/GPS was created as “commercially relevant”🤔 @MazzucatoM @francesca_bria @paullecoque : The first practical application based on quantum advantage will officially launch the quantum age, predicted Peter Chapman, chief executive of $IONQ. https://www.ft.com/... @unhedgedchatter : “The hardware has seen a 10-fold improvement over the past two years, according to Will Oliver, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.” $GOOG $GOOGL https://www.ft.com/... InfraHopeHard / @lilaphasia : https://www.ft.com/... quantum hardware system has seen a 10-fold improvement over the past two years..in the short term had shifted to trying to use quantum systems in tandem with classical computers to improve ML @QuantumDom
