Overview
Explore the evolution and future of quantum computing in this presidential lecture that traces IBM's journey from launching the first cloud-based quantum computer to developing utility-scale quantum supercomputers. Discover how recent advances in hardware, software, and error management protocols are driving the transition into the quantum utility phase, where quantum systems enhance classical computing capabilities and tackle previously unsolvable problems. Learn about the roadmap to scaling quantum systems with hundreds of thousands of qubits, integrated through hybrid cloud platforms, leading to the quantum-centric supercomputing era by 2033. Gain insights into the development of IBM Quantum System Two, a revolutionary modular architecture combining traditional bits, qubits, and hybrid cloud computing to create the world's first utility-scale quantum supercomputer.
