Getting Started in Quantum Computing in 2021

[@CraigGidney]

If you're looking for ideas for quantum projects, here are some I've considered but have discarded as "I wish it existed but I do not have time for that". Each would be seriously impressive in my opinion. Maybe they fit the bill for you: 1. Make a "qubit" people can hold in their hands. For example, a hollowed out ball with an Arduino inside talking to a nearby laptop running a sim. Turning the ball rotates the qubit and smacking the ball on a table measures it and bumping two balls together applies a CZ between their qubits. I tried doing this, but couldn't turn the bump-to-CZ idea into a reality. Maybe that's totally the wrong motion to use. Fix the idea and make it work. This would be very handy for teaching, I think. 2. Wikipedia articles on quantum computing are sparse and bad. Just... fix that. Add one article or seriously improve one article every day. Then, a year later, point out you wrote hundreds of wikipedia articles about the topic. Also, writing the articles will result in your learning a ton. 3. There's no common place to find and compare quantum circuits for tasks. What's the lowest depth 8 bit adder? How many gates does my table lookup need if I only have 3 ancilla to work with? Finding that stuff is hard! Make a quantum circuit zoo where people can submit circuits to be verified as achieving some function cheaper than previous work. Make it so good that people start using it as a resource.

@@Anastasia-Marchenkova Hi are you good 🤔 , I mean ur not uploading videos sooo....are u oky ???

[@cam5816]

Reading this just makes me feel hopeless lol. I can hardly understand anything being talked about. Feel like I might be too old/late to get started-normal computers are already giving me a really hard time getting into. I wish I had explored or been introduced to these topics years ago or when I was in college

[@sanyamsaxena1599]

Its my second year at college and was wondering and searching about the same things AND HERE YOU ARE WITH THE BEST VIDEO EVER :))) !!!....

[@shivam_dhyani]

Amazing Video, thanx for sharing with us🙏 Just one thing to tell you, that there is a video rendering issue, at 07:05 mins. Do check it once!!

[@methodman6470]

Greetings stranger, you are on the right side of KZbin, do not stop learning.

[@rishabghosh6589]

If you could do a video on the different branches of quantum computing and for which major is more suited for that branch that would be great.

[@rishabghosh6589]

@@Anastasia-Marchenkova Yes of course. Like people often get into QC because of the hype and aren't well informed about the various branches under quantum technology or quantum information science or computing.

[@CraigGidney]

Anecdotally, I can confirm it's possible to get into quantum computing via self-study. It's what I did. And in hindsight my journey into the field even followed the pieces of advice in the video. For example, I had quantum computing side projects (e.g. Quirk) that I could point at. And also I joined the google quantum team not as a researcher but as a software engineer, and only later transitioned into a research role. That being said, I'll emphasize again that this is all in hindsight. I didn't really formulate a plan to get into quantum computing and, if I had thought of it as a plan at the time, I would have thought it was a crazy goal. My experience of it as it happened was more like a series of unexpected escalating events that I pushed along but each felt natural at the time. For example, I didn't write Quirk to further my career. I wrote it because I was frustrated that existing quantum simulators didn't apply enough of Brett Victor's ideas on UX. It was only later that I realized it had career uses.

bro i wqnt to be in quantum computing i am currently student of cs.

[@priyanshubh]

Hi! It would be really helpful if you can create a roadmap to learn Quantum Computing in an organised way I really like your content and I want to get into Quantum Computing and if possible do make tutorials or live sessions on Quantum Computing 😀.

[@menot5039]

after watching this video and see how much information you gave . i can only say " i love you❤ "

[@blockhook]

hi Anastasia. I have access to these resources. I'd love to know which you would recommend for beginners, especially if we are looking into building small projects: 1. Quantum Machine Learning with Python: Using Cirq from Google Research and IBM Qiskit by Santanu Pattanayak 2. Practical Quantum Computing for Developers: Programming Quantum Rigs in the Cloud using Python, Quantum Assembly Language and IBM QExperience by Vladimir Silva 3. Quantum Computing: An Applied Approach by Jack D. Hidary 4. Quantum Computing Solutions: Solving Real-World Problems Using Quantum Computing and Algorithms by Bhagvan Kommadi thank you!

Do you thing I can get into the field of quantum computing by majoring in chemical engineering?

I just want to use the quantum computers. I don't think I need most of what was mentioned here. I spun up on neural networks in about 1 focused month. Where's the equivalent for quantum?

Mam please reply for my doubt I don't want to learn python and any programming launguage what all do. I want a unique and advanced standalone launguage for quantum computing to learn which is not dependent on any other Can I use Q# ???? Please reply think you understood my intension. And I read in Google that python is a real quantumn launguage . Is it correct??if yes then why Q# Note I don't know any launguage and wanna start

Is it worthy to learn python for Quantum computing??

[@rfengr00]

What’s your opinion on QuEra? If it takes 1M qubits to build a viable quantum processor, then methods with superconducting resonators and read/write circuits are really going to limit the density.

Thanks for the Great insightful video Anastasia. I have a M.Sc in Computer Science and currently working as a Sr.Data Engineer, but now I would like to pursue a career in Quantum Financial Engineering (QFE) or QML. Could you perhaps give us some insights on where to get started? Any open source projects or research projects in QFE or QML that I can contribute at the moment to build experience , so as to join an industry sponsored PhD program or ultimately a career in QFE ?

[@alihouadef5539]

Great advice, straight to the point. I would like to point out that one way to excel in research and industry is to combine separate fields, as many great scientists did. Example: if you are studying material science, try to look for new materials for quantum applications. If you are a process engineer, look for new ways to make various quantum computer parts. A biologist, think of using quantum computers to "maybe" simulate selected phenomenon. On so on..... The possibilities are endless 🤗

Hello, can a degree in chemistry and then a masters in math and foundation of computers, set me up for quantum computing. Also if I learn how to code, specialise in quantum chem, a branch of quantum physics, also most the math is covered in my course i.e mechanical matrices, linear algebra and quantum mechanics.
