<p>When we set out to produce this series, there was one name we heard more frequently than any other: Charlie Bennett.</p> <p>Charlie is one of the founding fathers of quantum information theory; a physicist, an information theorist, and an IBM Fellow; the photographer behind the famous picture captured at the Endicott House conference 40 years ago; and a visionary without whom we would be staring down a very different quantum future.</p> <p>Sebastian, Abe and Matt sit down for a conversation with Charlie about the rise of reversible computing, the limits of anthropocentrism in quantum information science, and the importance of broadening peoples’ intuition in order to bring about seismic change.</p> <p>Credits: Co-created and co-hosted by Sebastian Hassinger and Abraham Asfaw. Produced, written, co-hosted and edited by Matt Hooper. Special thanks to the entire IBM Quantum team.</p>

<p>Real quantum computers are here, but they are small and noisy, and not fully mature. Be that as it may Professor Prineha Narang of Harvard is finding ways to use IBM’s open-source quantum platforms to do useful things like simulation and probing the limits of what is possible right now. Additionally, she is pioneering ‘Quantum Entanglement as a Service’ via her startup, Aliro, a software company whose goal is to democratize access to quantum computing.</p> <p>Join Sebastian and Matt as they chat with Prineha about her own quantum journey, the power and problems of quantum noise, and the development of both her class and business.</p> <p>Credits: Co-created and co-hosted by Sebastian Hassinger and Abraham Asfaw. Produced, written, co-hosted and edited by Matt Hooper. Special thanks to the entire IBM Quantum team.</p>

<p>Sometimes, you just want to experience a very large dilution refrigerator in action. And that’s exactly what this episode delivers!</p> <p>Join Sebastian, Abe and Matt as they chat with Pat Gumann (Manager of Quantum Processor and System Integration, Quantum Computing at IBM) and Jay Gambetta (IBM Fellow and Vice President, Quantum Computing at IBM), about how the quantum field became a quantum industry, and the technical challenges of using a superconducting platform to build qubits.</p> <p>Credits: Co-created and co-hosted by Sebastian Hassinger and Abraham Asfaw. Produced, written, co-hosted and edited by Matt Hooper. Special thanks to the entire IBM Quantum team.</p>
