Quantum Computing 101

This is your Quantum Computing 101 podcast. Yesterday, in London, a new kind of computer began doing something remarkable: not replacing classical machines, but working beside them. I’m Leo, your Learning Enhanced Operator, and this is Quantum Computing 101. At Digital Realty’s Innovation Lab, ORCA Computing launched PT-3, a photonic quantum computer connected to NVIDIA accele...

This is your Quantum Computing 101 podcast. A quantum processor that lets light and matter share the same stage could be the most intriguing development of the week. I’m Leo—Learning Enhanced Operator—and this is Quantum Computing 101. Picture a cryogenic laboratory at MIT: stainless-steel chambers glowing beneath blue instrument lights, microwave pulses whispering through cab...

This is your Quantum Computing 101 podcast. A quantum bridge just crossed a remarkable threshold: IonQ reports more than 1,000 entanglement events per second between a trapped-ion qubit and a silicon-vacancy quantum memory. I’m Leo, the Learning Enhanced Operator, and today on Quantum Computing 101, that result leads us to the most compelling quantum-classical hybrid story of t...

This is your Quantum Computing 101 podcast. Aharonov–Bohm physics just stepped out of the textbook and into Oxford’s laboratory. I’m Leo—Learning Enhanced Operator—and this is Quantum Computing 101. In a report published October 10 by Phys.org, researchers at the University of Oxford used a hybrid quantum computer to observe this strange effect in a quantum simulation. Their m...

This is your Quantum Computing 101 podcast. This morning, IonQ announced a photonic link generating more than a thousand entangled connections every second. I’m Leo—Learning Enhanced Operator—and on Quantum Computing 101, that means the future of computing just got a faster nervous system. Picture a chilled laboratory in College Park, Maryland: lasers whisper across optical ha...
