Discover how innovations in quantum computing are bringing powerful support to the world’s leading researchers on the front lines of materials science and advancements in generative AI — providing them with solutions that surpass what’s possible with classical computation alone. D-Wave's Dr. Trevor Lanting, chief development officer, and Murray Thom, vice president of quantum technology evangelism, will discuss advancements in coherent annealing quantum computing and its impact on minimizing thermal noise, allowing researchers to explore previously inaccessible quantum regimes that could lead to such breakthroughs. Its fast anneal feature has been at the heart of D-Wave’s scientific advancements over the past two years, demonstrating what the company believes is a demonstration of quantum supremacy: using quantum computing to perform a calculation that would take a million years using classical methods in only 20 seconds. The discussion will illustrate how Fast Anneal is helping researchers explore the study of metastable states and implications for developing materials with unique properties, which could lead to new breakthroughs in generative AI and materials discovery.
