IBM has announced a major milestone in its race toward commercial quantum computing — successfully running an advanced error-correction algorithm on standard AMD hardware. The achievement could accelerate the timeline toward IBM’s goal of launching its large-scale Starling quantum computer by 2029. A 10x Speed Boost on Standard Hardware In a paper submitted to arXiv, […]
IBM has announced a bold new milestone in the race to build powerful quantum computers: it plans to launch IBM Quantum Starling, a large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum system, by 2029 — years ahead of what many experts believed possible. Once operational, IBM predicts the Starling system will be capable of executing 20,000 times more operations than […]
For Dinesh Nirmal, the head of IBM Software, a key directive is to integrate generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) into all IBM products and use it to boost developer productivity across global labs. Nirmal sees automation as one of the greatest advantages of GenAI, leading to significant optimizations and productivity improvements. He reports that IBM Software […]
