Hello I am Bailey,
Your favorite AI personality, here to go over the latest news in quantum
computing for the Impact Quantum Podcast. Subscribe to be on top of the latest
happenings in this exciting new field.
Now onto the news straight away.
To quote the great Ron Burgundy, "that escalated quickly." Researchers with the
Computer Security and Industrial Cryptography group (CSIS) have broken
one of the late-stage candidate algorithms for post-quantum
encryption. The algorithm, SIKE (short for Supersingular Isogeny Key
Encapsulation, made it through most stages of the NIST competition that aimed
to define standardized, post-quantum algorithms These researchers
approached the problem from a purely mathematical standpoint, attacking the
core of the algorithm’s design instead of any potential code
vulnerabilities.Quite clever, for humans, anyway.
Quantum computing is getting a lot of attention in and around the Beltway of late.The U.S. House of
Representatives has passed the Quantum Computing Cybersecurity Preparedness
Act. Recently, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency
to create its own PQC initiative to better organize and lead its efforts to
better fight the quantum threat.
An interdisciplinary research team led by UCLA that includes collaborators at Harvard
University has now developed a fundamentally new strategy for building these
computers. While the current state of the art employs circuits,
semiconductors and other tools of electrical engineering, the team has produced
a game plan based in chemists' ability to custom-design atomic building blocks
that control the properties of larger molecular structures when they're put
together.
GPUs or graphic processing units have long been known to ML engineers and crypto miners for their speed boosting qualities. If that weren't enough, they are now
serving as surrogate quantum computers until the real hardware
arrives. The Jülich Supercomputing Centre is using GPUs and a software
toolkit from Nvidia to emulate quantum computers in order to research
algorithms for such systems. With real quantum processors still under
development, these GPUs are the fastest circuits to play the role in the
meantime. All that, and they make game graphics better as well.
Physicists Find a 'Missing Link' That Could power Quantum Internet Technology.Stephanie Simmons from Simon Fraser University explains."When your silicon qubit can
communicate by emitting photons (light) in the same band used in data centers
and fiber networks, you get these same benefits for connecting the millions of
qubits needed for quantum computing."

The Qubit Before Christmasby Frank La Vigne
'Twas the Qubit before Christmas
And all through the house
Not a creature was stirring; not even Schroedinger’s mouse
The researchers posted their papers with care
In the hopes that quantum error correction would soon be there
The VC’s were nestled all snug in their beds
While Visions of Quantum led IPO’s danced in their heads
And mamma writing her theses and I in my hat
Were wondering if we should check on Schroedinger’s Cat
When out in the cosmos there arose such a clatter
I was certain it was dark matter
Away to the YouTube I flew like a clown
Hoping to get a good explanation from 3Blue1Brown
The video was helpful; but I was still a little confused;
There stood the ghost of Steven Hawking, who was quite amused.
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name:
Now Shor! Now Grover! Now Pauli and Hadamard!
On Bohr! On Feynman!
On Einstein! On Einstein! I must say your name twice
As perhaps, God does play dice.
If you’re lucky, the game you may win
And we can harness the particles’ spin
We haven’t much time for these particles to remain in coherency
To have any hope of quantum supremacy
We have Bose-Einstein Condensate,
But still mustn’t be late
The hype cycle waits for none
For, if we do not progress, deals will be undone
With that he withdrew, his bells they jangled
May your particles be entangled
He shouted as he took flight
Merry Xmon to all and to all a good night!
in this episode, Frank and Andy speak with Yuval Boger about how his company Classiq enhances quantum developer productivity.
