Onwards to the next speaker at 'Next Level 2024: exploring the future of science and games', @decodoku from @Moth_Quantum will explore what games can do for quantum and what quantum can do for games #Games #Quantum

We’re thrilled to announce the book launch of "Quantum Mechanics and Avant-Garde Music: Shadows of the Void" by Rakhat-Bi Abdyssagin, Quantum Music Researcher at Moth, composer, and pianist. This book explores the intersections between quantum mechanics and avant-garde music. A…

Our next speaker is quantum computing expert James Wooton (@decodoku) from Moth Quantum! What on earth is a quantum computer exactly, and what does it have to do with videogames? James is a world expert on both topics! Grab your free tickets here: kcl.ac.uk/events/next-le…

We’re looking for a post doc to join us exploring the intersection of quantum chemistry and quantum computing - 2 year position - Based in the QIC group at EPFL (Lausanne) - Collaboration with Roche (Basel) Email me if interested

It had to be done, and now someone has finally done it. With 70,000 qubits we can run DOOM! Now let's see if we can reduce that number down a bit before the age of fault-tolerance begins.

Dear #Quantum/#QuantumComputing community, I am pleased to announce that my incredibly talented (and crazy) office mate and friend Luke Mortimer has done it : behold Quandoom, a port of the first level of DOOM designed for a quantum computer. github.com/Lumorti/Quando…

I’m excited to welcome @decodoku as Moth’s new Chief Scientist! We recently spoke with @deantak from @VentureBeat about this significant step for both Moth and the quantum field. Read the full article here: venturebeat.com/ai/moth-aims-t…


I don't suppose anyone is keeping a list of quantum advantage claims?

10 years ago Kelly et al showed bigger rep code circuits do better. The dream was to do the same for a full quantum code. This year we finally did it. arxiv.org/abs/2408.13687 has d=5 surface codes twice as good as d=3. And d=7 twice as good again, outliving the physical qubits.

Check out our latest preprint @GoogleQuantumAI pushing the surface code to the next level! - Below threshold (Λ > 2) - Distance-7 logical qubit, 0.0014 error per cycle, >2x better than physical qubits - Explore 10^-10 error regime with repetition codes arxiv.org/abs/2408.13687

One of the last things I did at IBM was compare today's devices to those from 2018, at the task of running a simple game. Using circuits with over 100 qubits and depth of 100, I find that they perform pretty well! medium.com/@decodoku/quan…


I saw a couple of Jersey Tiger over the last few days. This is cementing it's takeover from the Hummingbird Hawk as my favourite moth species. I just thought you all needed to know this.

New paper today! scirate.com/arxiv/2408.020… If you've run a QEC experiment and what to know how noisy your hardware is, you could compute the Λ factor. But that's not so easy if the noise is above threshold. So instead, you could look at the probability that detectors are triggered.
