Bringing Useful Quantum Computing to the World – Kayla Lee – ESW #315
Quantum computing is a rapidly emerging technology that harnesses the laws of quantum mechanics to solve problems that today’s most powerful supercomputers cannot practically solve. IBM's Dr. Kayla Lee will explain how close we are to a computational quantum advantage: the point where a computational task of business or scientific relevance can be performed more efficiently, cost-effectively, or accurately using a quantum computer than with classical computations alone.
