Quantum Computing and the Entanglement Frontier

Richard P. Feynman Professor of Theoretical Physics

58:04·2022·undergraduate level·Public Colloquium

Maps the physical boundary between noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices and fault-tolerant topological error correction.

In recent years, billions of dollars from mainstream companies have been invested in researching quantum computing. The hunt for the first scalable quantum computer is on.

But where do we stand?

Prof. John Preskill from the California Institute of Technology and the Amazon (AWS) center for quantum computing is one of the leading pioneers in quantum information science. He’s here to talk about the beautiful theory of entanglement, the physics that underpins quantum computing, the current state of affairs and where to go next.
