Unboxing Quantum Computing • Murray Thom • GOTO 2021

This presentation was recorded at GOTO Copenhagen 2021. #GOTOcon #GOTOcph Murray Thom - World-leading Quantum Computing Expert at D-Wave ABSTRACT Are you imagining what it would be like to build and deploy applications that harness the unique power of quantum computers? Did you know that developers have built early quantum applications in a matter of days and used immediate, real-time quantum cloud access to demonstrate business results that meet or exceed their internal benchmarks? In this talk you’ll learn about real proof points and quantum use cases across multiple industry verticals. We’ll even dive into a problem, show you how to get access today, and walk through a code example to take a closer look at QPUs (quantum processing units). • how to get immediate access to quantum computers and get started quickly • how to recognize suitable problems and use cases • where to find open source code samples [...] TIMECODES 00:00 Intro 04:18 Over 250 early apps across multiple industries 06:39 VW: Streamline the automotive supply chain for efficiency gains 09:21 Save on Food: Business-critical tasks in minutes instead of hours 10:52 Denso: Optimize automated guided vehicles on factory floors 11:56 Why quantum computing? 14:43 Quantum computing total addressable market 15:48 Better together: A comprehensive platform 18:33 Demo 34:49 Application workflows 35:44 Consider a clinical decision support system 37:11 Workforce scheduling 41:59 Optimization methods with open code examples 43:05 Business value meets the frontier of advancing science 43:25 How quickly can information be processed? 43:53 Emergence of structure in quantum computing 45:21 Quantum & the universe 46:58 Outro Download slides and read the full abstract here: RECOMMENDED BOOKS Johan Vos • Quantum Computing in Action (available soon) • Jack D.
