ML can produce immense benefits when applied to complex nonlinear problems where there is a large amount of data, particularly unstructured data. Use cases for incorporating machine learning in banking include asset management, fraud… Podcast March 6, 2024 Podcast | Logical Qubits Arrive - with QuEra Quantum computing needs error-corrected, logical qubits to exit the noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) era and bring real advantage to practical business and other use cases. A recent experiment at Harvard succeeded at creating 48 logical qubits on a neutral atom platform, and the techniques will be implemented in production systems in the future. We may have 100 logical qubits by 2026!
