IBM Makes the Best Quantum Computer Open to Public
IBM in collaboration with UC Berkeley researchers announced a recent breakthrough experiment which indicates that quantum computers will soon surpass classical computers in practical tasks. Now, the company is taking another major step that has never been done before by it. The company is making the 127-qubit quantum computer publicly available over IBM Cloud. Click here to sign-up for it on Qiskit. The SDK is still available in beta. The IBM researchers measured the noise in each qubit and extrapolated their measurements to predict the system’s behaviour without noise. They successfully ran calculations involving all 127 qubits of the Eagle processor, marking the largest reported experiment of its kind. In light of the release of our significant Nature publication, which presents compelling evidence on the practicality of quantum computers, it has become evident that having 100+ qubits is an essential requirement for their usefulness. “We fully recognize the significance of ensuring that all users, clients, and partner institutions of IBM Quantum have equal access to the capabilities showcased in the paper. This accessibility will enable them to actively delve into this exciting new era of quantum utility alongside us,” said IBM. Since 2017, IBM Research has been offering open source SDK for quantum development through Qiskit. Through the platform, people have been researching quantum computers provided by IBM. IBM is set to release its most powerful quantum processor, the 1,121-qubit Condor chip, later this year. Additionally, the company has “utility-scale processors” with up to 4,158 qubits in its development pipeline. Recently, Quantum Brilliance, a developer of miniaturised room-temperature quantum computing solutions also released its Qristal SDK, an open-source development kit fully integretable with C++ and Python APIs, along with NVIDIA CUDA.
