So excited to be speaking at the 6th #QuantumComputing Opportunities in #Energy Innovation #Workshop
🕑10:00-11:30am MDT at #IEEEQuantumWeek!

I will be discussing two projects I lead in this space on:

#QuantumMachineLearning for smart electrical grids 🔋🔌

and

#Nuclear modeling ⚛️

See you there! 🤹‍♀️💃

Definitely some interesting progress in the field! I think DWave's result is a step in the right direction though we aren't there yet!

Lots of people wonder whether quantum computers will bring benefit in this area - I'll direct you to a fabulous article written by my dear friend and colleague Dr. Josie Meyer on the QEP blog

Just discovered your account. I'd love to hear/learn more about power and energy implications for Quantum Computing, specifically how innovators are considering or addressing sustainable power/energy challenges (as they really aren't for AI infrastructure).

Ewing Tang is literally a genius!

Great interview in which Ewin Tang describes how she shook the quantum world at age 18.
So far, classical computers perform most tasks better than quantum computers can. In a new episode of “The Joy of Why,” computer scientist Ewan Tang speaks with co-host Janna Levin about the effort to understand the limitations of quantum machines. www.quantamagazine.org/what-is-the-...

Heres my bullshit meter on #DWave some interesting stuff!
💩💩 / 💩💩💩💩💩
- Their claims of solving a useful problem arent exactly true its better than circuit sampling though!
- Many groups are claiming they can simulate SOME but NOT ALL of their results so far

Is D-Wave's Quantum Supremacy Claim Justified or Overhyped?
D-Wave's claim of quantum supremacy has ignited fierce debate! Can their quantum computer truly outpace classical machines? Critics argue the claim is premature, but D-Wave's tech shows promise, solvi...

Wow, fraudster Martin Shkreli has a pretty good understanding of quantum computing.

Takes one to know one, I guess.

Well said!
The best indicator of how close we are to quantum utility is that researchers who should be first or second wave adopters of the technology typically can't tell you what they'd do with it. #quantum

Big tech profits from releasing overhyped/incorrect/misleading #quantum 'breakthroughs'

See @microsoft.com Majorana fiasco, @googlesearch.bsky.social Sycamore supremacy scam, or #IBM 's fake quantum utility

If they crash the market by killing investor confidence its going to be us that pays for it
