Error Correction Breakthrough (20x Boost) — with Stephanie Simmons of Photonic

Quantum computing needs low-overhead error correction to truly scale. Building thousands of qubits to end up with a couple of useful logical ones feels like a bad strategy. Photonic recently published a paper describing a new type of error correction code that promises a 20x reduction in the number of qubits needed to run quantum algorithms that solve real business problems. Are these so-called SHYPS QLDPC codes the path to fault-tolerant systems? Will they help multiple types of quantum chips from other vendors get there? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat about error correction and more with Stephanie Simmons from Photonic.
