Lab Tour: How IBM tests quantum processors

[@Chemisynthstrucplexifyimunosys]

This tour really showcases the incredible advancements IBM Quantum has made with the Heron chip and its supporting technology. The comparison between Falcon and Heron highlights how far the field has come, especially with innovations like the flexible signal delivery system and tunable couplers for optimizing gates. It’s fascinating to see the level of precision and testing that goes into ensuring high-quality performance before deployment. Also, the secure lab entry with retina scans adds a high-tech touch! Thanks for giving us a behind-the-scenes look into such cutting-edge work!

I loved working in the quantum characterization lab this year 😁.

[@butterbertha9439]

I'm jealous

[@FALprofessional]

It's nice to see an update from IBM (right after Google's Willow update), but the presentation feels too awkward. Didn't realize Heron is at 156 qubit versus Google's 105. Kudos.

[@puckyMaXxx]

Tbh what significant for company to reach massive amount of qubits? Even if there's 1Quetta of stable qubits can you extract information from it? And IF there's 64 stable qubits standard chip, is it stable at room temperature ?

[@friskydingo5370]

Awesome 👌 I wonder what frequency microwaves you use. What are the main advantages of this compared to room temperature silcone photonics? Excellent video 👍

[@rishotube]

Ibm is a legendary company

[@KamiKomplex504]

Ok but how do you verify a chip pre production? Or do you just trust the design, maybe verify the IP at unit level and then go to production without verification of design?

[@butterbertha9439]

Amazing, I cant wait to see what the futrue holds

[@Poosboy]

absolutely awesome stuff, thank you!

[@dissaid]

Thank-you so much!

[@UtahBlender]

Remarkable progress in quantum computing requiring refrigeration.

[@UtahBlender]

I believe the key to future progress is focusing on utilizing qbit errors and harnessing them into isolated code blocks. These blocks insert their own planned point interstitial defects to add results. Ultimately leading to logarithmic monetary standards and measures on a global scale which keeps standard computing in the Black Friday markets. Harness the power of the fridge. 👍🏻

[@UtahBlender]

Ultimately when matured, mm -> fridge.

[@vishalsirohiya2896]

6:05 did she really said that it will start measuring in 2 days😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@Griimnak]

can it run crysis?

[@puckyMaXxx]

NO, but simulate Crysis-like universe, maybe~

[@lucas_couto]

Awesome, thanks.

You put it into a box with a cat and then see if the cat is alive or dead…. If it’s both at the same time, the quantum chip is working?

[@diggleda2952]

Response video to Google?

[@Lexxxco1]

IBM is several years ahead of Google in quantum. The have presented 100+ cubits before.

[@lance8080]

Buy American 🇺🇸

[@asgeirloftsson]

lets put aside complicated words and begin to visualize the processor. this system still relies on tremendous amount of input and output wires. so you just made a extra large processor with thinner wires you protect by supercooling them. am i wrong

[@asgeirloftsson]

i realized they are not claiming anything just its a look into some research department that kind of gives it away.

[@bhanuchandra28]

IBM have better computers.

[@PilotVBall]

Stop scamming investors with quantum. You've got nothing!

[@puckyMaXxx]

Come On~ give them "a bit" hope pliss

[@stizandelasage]

Now it's your work leave me technical documents I will apply other scientists to it and mathematicians

[@stizandelasage]

Leave technical documents for computer science that's what AMD did all I read and computer science books and chemistry and electrical

[@808Efe]

can you give more details on what to read?

[@stizandelasage]

@808Efe before AMD bulldozer architecture the white papers and technical documents describing the cpu layout and pins instructions and functions where on the website for investors to read 📚 voltages and how to wire the cpu very similar to microchip documents every address of the cpu in the documents

[@stizandelasage]

@808Efe each cpu is a 1500 page book describing all features and functions microchip is only about 400 pages

[@stizandelasage]

@808Efe the multicore only used 1 AA battery 🔋 worth of energy max the lower the voltage the better it works electrical laws and physical laws is why the cpu was cored

[@stizandelasage]

@808Efe my designs ideas 💡 and concepts to launch quantum was in light of studying concepts in physics basically more electrons in-between high and ultra frequencies the downside is material burnout

[@notsecure]

Is this IBM's response to Google's Willow chip? or desperate attempt to be relevant?

[@Lexxxco1]

IBM is several years ahead of Google in quantum. The have presented 100+ cubits before, but apparently not many people know about it.

[@simondj8572]

@@Lexxxco1 how so, did they show any calculation or proof of advancement onto error correction as google showed up? No, IBM is more on patent trolling.

what exactly will quantum computing do for human standard of living. Currently technology of this scale is expensive its in developmental stages and productions is limited. Overly expensive for a limited effectiveness. I would bet on it that these chips are not better than our best silicon chips in computing. Seems like a waste of time and money for me. The reason why it doesnt seem effective is because of the consumption of energy from the process and the refrigeration. The modern engineers only focus on speed and performance however reliability has significantly diminished.

[@adrianoolivares7851]

Basically all this is creating expendable skills, engineers, technology, energy, and customers. Business. And the biggest debt consumers are tech companies. They over invest in growth.

[@Lexxxco1]

These are tests and research for future generations of computers with 1M+ cubits that may be able to do more types of calculations quicker. And you don't need to bet - it well known that for now quantum simulation on standard chips are better. However, people said similar things about transistors and fundamental research. This research is the main reason we are able to write this messages to each other.

[@adrianoolivares7851]

@@Lexxxco1 this isnt research though. This is the prototype product, for comercial sales. IBM. If it was the universities making the chips and testing the simulations i would agree with you however this is already going outside of the academic sector and its a private company with personal interests( money) trying to promote this theoretical calculations. I have dove deep into quantum and understand that its still all about the possibility of probabilities. Most engineers think this means faster sims, incorrect this means more probabilities. Entropy, all possible probabilities are proportionally probable. More un orderly states than ordered. Electronics follow the fundamentals of classical physics so they use Differences of Potentials. Chemical potentials, statics, and photonics. Quantum will use the fundamentals of structures, thermodynamics and superconductors. My issue is that for this to be pushed to the public is still very early and will inevitably cause mistakes.

[@adrianoolivares7851]

@@ibmresearch ill take you up on that thank you. If you have any research from your haters ill read that too. Truth is i still hope for a more effective system to be made. Just look at dynamics of reality. Like how when a person is overly detailed the most mistakes happen. Plans never go according to plan. What we did with technology is force our way of understanding onto nature. What humans had that lead them to dominate earth was some sort of collective consciousness that united (Unity) many cultures to coexist. Values systems this is what most conscious leaders at the time shared. Okay so if before quantum solidified as a path of study most academia believed that the brain(consciousness) worked in a logical form. Digital inputs and outputs. Then we begin to understand consciousness through the enlightenment of the Psychological departments in France. They discover that certain cultural dynamics carry different weights to them that result in overall different calculations from logic algorithms. So the brain is not just Digital. Quantum will prove to be able to advance ai and other tech but it wont change the way culture views technology. It wont change the human element of reality. Unity. My true concern is that what is the purpose of quantum now? Humans carry around supercomputers and they spend most their times on social media, how will teleporting qubits help me scroll faster? I feel that trying to give this a price and selling it to investors will just make your company start pushing more for this and then all the EE, ME, CS etc. engineers gone and again quantum is still very much so (undefined, theory, probability). All Love doe🖤

"Most performant quantum chip" I've heard the US is lagging in quantum technology and now I beleive it. Them IBM fellows can't even talk good American.
