Today at its annual conference, Qubits, D-Wave announced Advantage 2 with over 7,000 qubits, new hybrid solvers in its Leap quantum cloud service, and expansion into gate-model quantum computers.
We sat down with D-Wave CEO Alan Baratz to have a chat about quantum computers, what kind of problems they're solving, how they're tackling the COVID-19 pandemic, and what lies ahead.
With a qubit count of 5000, D-Wave's next gen quantum system is also the most connected quantum computer to date. The firm also announced a new hybrid solver and a program to boost businesses in QC.
Amazon Braket is now generally available. It supports local simulation of quantum algorithms on EC2 instances and provides access to real quantum computing hardware from D-Wave, IonQ, and Rigetti.
Under the partnership, NEC has made an investment worth $10 million in D-wave to focus on the development of hybrid quantum software for industries like transportation, marketing, and finance.
D-Wave has opened up free access to its cloud quantum computing services to researchers looking for solutions to COVID-19. Its partners have also agreed to lend technical assistance to researchers.
D-Wave has announced a new service called Leap 2. It integrates tools that were requested by the users of the original Leap service. Leap 2 is available immediately on a bigger range of price points.
D-Wave has announced its next generation platform that includes a processor with 5000 qubits. While the whole platform will be ready by mid-2020, some components will be ready earlier.
With the theoretical limits of silicon based processors being tested each year, Google and other companies have been pushing hard to bring Quantum Computing to its data centers and clients.
Microsoft Research and Rambus have partnered up to further develop their collective understanding of, among other things, memory usage and optimization in quantum computing.
