Quantum Computing Now episodes:

April 30, 2025"Choose Your Own Adventure" with Amir Karamlou (Google QuantumAI)
Happy *belated World Quantum Day (Week/Month/Year). This episode is about the journey that one can take in navigating and getting started in the quantum technology space.

This was recorded live at the NYU Abhu Dhabi International Hackathon for Social Good.

This episode I talk to Google QuantumAI's esteemed research scientist who was part of the Willow team - Amir Karamlou. We'll hear about Amir's journey and how hackathons can change the future of the quantum space.

March 09, 2025 For the Love of Quantum
The return of the QCN podcast!! This episode was meant to release on February 14th!
Ethan's mic (quite literally) has been passed on to me, Shway, and I'll be the new host. I hope I do nearly as great of a job communicating the journey of learning quantum computing as he did...
Thank you my friend.
(Also congratulations to Ethan & his fiancée!!!!!)

I procrastinated on posting this. Expect more episodes on quantum computing technologies, with hopefully less procrastination. And as always, stay curious!

July 14, 2023Reprogrammable Quantum Secure Hardware with Mamta Gupta - Episode 47
We've heard on the show before about software needed to secure devices in a post-quantum world, but what about the hardware? Mamta Gupta from Lattice Semiconductor is here to tell us all about that!
A note: at one point, Mamta talks about massive parallelism being the reason for quantum computing's speedup. As far as I can tell, it's not. I didn't think during the podcast was the best time to bring it up, but if you want to learn more, I recommend looking at the episode I did with Scott Aaronson and also the episode with Jon Skerrett
