Why Quantum, Why Now: The Case for Better Qubits and Better Data

Quantum computing holds the promise of generating novel data efficiently that classical systems cannot??"data that fuels AI models, drives scientific discovery, and unlocks new ways of understanding our world. But to realize this potential, quantum computers must become dramatically more reliable, capable of producing high-accuracy outputs at scale. In this talk, I’ll explore how quantum error correction is enabling that leap, with a focus on neutral atom architectures and their unique advantages in scalability and connectivity. We’ll examine how these techniques come together into a common platform supporting complementary hardware platforms, and how qubit virtualization and hybrid quantum-classical systems are accelerating progress toward fault-tolerant quantum computing. Join me to discover how better quantum hardware and smarter error correction are transforming quantum data generation into a powerful resource for science and society.
