While we await practical business advantage with quantum computing, another important question arises: Has quantum information science already furthered our understanding of science? What’s the difference between a simulator and an emulator, and how does a physical quantum computer fit in? Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Lincoln Carr from Colorado School of Mines as they explore these topics, along with everything from tensor networks, to thermodynamics, to complexity, with an eye to how the hardware timeline will make practical power a reality.
