As we close the chapter on 2024 and its remarkable quantum breakthroughs, it’s time to focus on the trends and challenges shaping the quantum computing landscape this year.  In 2025, the focus will shift from exploring theoretical possibilities to demonstrating tangible business value, known as quantum utility, in real-world applications. The latter would likely be achieved with specialized application-specific hardware and software and hybrid classical-AI-quantum computations.  Focus on Quantum Utility The emphasis will shift further from “quantum supremacy” (demonstrating that a quantum computer can perform a task that is intractable for classical computers) to “quantum utility” (solving real-world problems that…

2024 was a landmark year for quantum computing. Quantum computers have again proven they can tackle impossible problems for even the most powerful supercomputers. With the rise of the easily accessible quantum-as-a-service cloud solutions and the continuous shattering of quantum supremacy records, there should be little hesitation left that quantum computing is here to stay.  Quantum computers are proving themselves. Google’s Willow chip performed a calculation in under five minutes that would take an estimated 10 septillion years for a classical supercomputer. This demonstrates the potential for exponential speedups in specific computational tasks, although the specific problem solved (Random Circuit…
