2024 IBM Quantum Roadmap Update

Jerry Chow, IBM Fellow and Director of Quantum Systems & Runtime Technology, presents the updated IBM Quantum development and innovation roadmap through 2033.
The world has entered a new era of quantum utility, where quantum systems operating with 100+ qubits can reliably run circuits at scales inaccessible to brute force classical simulation. In this video, the IBM Quantum team explores how quantum utility and other recent innovations have laid the groundwork for an expanded quantum roadmap - one that now covers both the public-facing systems and services of the future, and the internal milestones that will drive those achievements.

the jump from 2028 to 2029 is insane

[@bromine_35]

They're eyeing exponential growth

[@gunaysoni6792]

If they figure out photonic interconnects then it is possible.

[@me_hanics]

Their goal is to figure out error correction. Currently, we have error mitigation, which really limits sizes (number of gates), but once we have error correction it'll be more straightforward to add more gates, and that is what their goal is for 2029 (to figure out error correction)

[@Breadbrowser]

Yeah

[@dissaid]

Thanks! This is the future of computing and I look forward to working with you all.

[@geigerbuzz816]

No clue why this channel doesn't have many views, as a teen Comp. Sci student, though I don't understand everything talked about, seeing IBM's trajectory for where they want to take quantum computing is simply fascinating

[@wrijas]

Because it's for a very specific type of person, and you are among those types of persons.

[@hunainalikhan9253]

[@user-lp5wb2rb3v]

I find semiconductor tech more interesting, Quantum computing is in a very small niche that consumers will never see

[@ianmarteens]

Because there only are three or four really useful quantum algorithms?

[@riastr0]

Same, I'm a Robotics Engineering Freshman, and this stuff is fascinating.

[@DJSolistica]

If the original roadmap to have 1,386+ qubits by the end of 2024 couldn't even be met, how can the proposal that you'll have 10k, 15k gates with 156qubits by the end of 2028 hold any merit. We'll be watching another one of these videos in 2028 where IBM will be at 6k gates and 156qubits with a new roadmap mapping out similar unrealistic goals into the 2030's.

[@BooleanDisorder]

Government be like: "Hey, stop it. We want that. Pretend it didn't work! You can just continue later."

[@klmn2000]

I think you're being very careless with your comments. Developing any kind of novel micro chip is already at the cutting edge of technological innovation. Doing so for a quantum micro chip is orders of magnitude more complex as the qubits couple with the surroundings (and degrade) so need to be isolated, introducing a whole host of issues. The IBM tech is based on solid state quantum chips - the sort that employs a lot of the technology needed to make regular chips - which need cryogenic cooling to minimise coupling between the qubits and the surrounding solid state lattice. In other words: building quantum chips is extremely, extremely difficult, requiring a great deal of technical skill and innovation. All engineering companies have to create R&D roadmaps to plan out their future. If a company is constantly hitting the milestones on the roadmap, they're not pushing themselves to dream of bigger goals.

[@DJSolistica]

@@klmn2000 There's a difference between realistic goals; and setting absurd goals to sweeten up your shareholders. Look at Elon musk for an example. To your comment about how difficult quantum technology is, I would say 'no fucking shit'.

[@klmn2000]

@@DJSolistica You sound like someone with zero experience in semiconductor R&D. Perhaps you think you know something about tech by reading about the exploits of Elon or about AI, but you seem like the sort of person who just likes to highlight the negatives rather than see positives and contribute to solutions. IBM's share price is not going to move on a Quantum roadmap as most investors have as much clue as you about what that means. To repeat: companies that want to do big things have serious aspirational goals. IBM can certainly achieve these goals. All they need are the right people and the right budget. Some players on quantum photonics are talking about even more lofty goals and one company has received $500 million to date for a 1 million qubit design. Another thing you have to consider with this key technology is that a lot of the best advances are hidden in deep black defense research labs and it is highly likely IBMs roadmap has already been surpassed by some entity years ago.

[@DJSolistica]

@@klmn2000 Ok so we have myself, a nobody that has no clue what he's talking about. And then we have you, a minor graduate in dark tech research and knows what a roadmap is. got it. carry on.

[@lufiporndre7800]

This is the new tech bubble to rides on and get rich, guys get on the train. Can any recommend groups to learn and make projects.

[@goodfortunetoyou]

I would think material science applications could be useful here. Imagine iterating through simulated compounds to find a room-temperature superconductor. Having a phone that lasts for months without a recharge. Imagine replacing refrigerants in your AC with highly efficient simulated solid state materials. Computer chips that emit less waste heat. MRAM with densities like DRAM. Imagine a battery so energy dense you could run a robot like "spot" (Boston Dynamics) for a day without it needing to recharge.

[@The_Ninja_Chin]

It'll change medicine too!

[@afterglow5285]

Amazing the quiskit sdk, so basically you can download the tools, program and send it to the quantum computer to run. 10 free minutes per month or 100 usd additional minute. I will give it a try, at least do the quantum hello world.
