IBM Research and ETH Zurich recently signed a new research agreement, with the aim of creating the algorithmic underpinnings of the next era of computing. This partnership has been around for a long time, with the IBM-ETH relationship dating back 70 years, to the very beginning of IBM’s presence in Zurich. The founding director of … Read more
Inside Short New research from Caltech and Oratomic suggests that fault-tolerant quantum computers may only need 10,000-20,000 qubits—much fewer than previously thought—which could speed up times up to this decade. The team has developed highly efficient quantum error correction systems using systems of neutral atoms, reducing the number of physical qubits from 1,000 to five. … Read more
Since arriving at Northeast in 2022, Yizhi You has focused his research on quantum many-body physics. This includes quantum computing, an emerging field that uses the principles of quantum physics to create machines that can operate faster than a conventional computer. Your work has won him awards such as the CAREER Award from the National … Read more
As the world progresses Nvidia‘s (NVDA Image +5.56%) chips powering today’s artificial intelligence (AI) boom, the company is quietly positioning itself as a major player in quantum computing. With a small investment of $1,000, Nvidia stands out as the smartest AI player – not because it builds the hardware, but because it now manages the … Read more

Isosurface of the Dyson orbital, taken from Piccinelli, Samuele, et al., “Exploring paths towards quantum chemistry: the case of a molecule with a half-Möbius topology,” arXiv, 9 March 2026. arXiv:2603.08696 A recent paper in the journal Science announced the discovery of a truly new and surprising substance that could have a major impact on our … Read more
Quantum computing is closer to reality than most investors realize. Although it may be a few years away, the contracts and relationships made now will affect the way the industry grows. And for investors to get the upper hand in the quantum computing investment space, they need to wait today before all of the early … Read more
Inside Short Researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the University of California Santa Barbara have demonstrated laser and ion-trap devices that could significantly reduce quantum computing resources. The study shows that the large, complex optical systems used to control confined qubits can be replaced by integrated photonic chips while maintaining high fidelity performance. … Read more
AI may be on the rise, but behind the scenes, companies are wasting a lot of money on expensive computers. GPUs are always idle, workloads are over-delivered, and cloud costs are rising. ScaleOps believes the problem isn’t scarcity — it’s bad management. The startup, which builds software that manages and redistributes computing resources in real … Read more
