We are on the cusp of the most disruptive revolution in modern-day computation history: the arrival of quantum computing and its integration into quantum-centric supercomputing architectures. Quantum computation is an entirely new branch of computing based on the ability to represent and manipulate data in entirely different ways.
Quantum computations unlock vast solution spaces with unique abilities to use quantum effects, including entanglement, to empower users with a rich set of probabilistic information to extract insights from highly complex datasets. Another key difference from classical computing is that these calculations can be performed at the same time, increasing computational power and efficiency.
With the arrival of useful quantum computing, industries will be able to solve complex problems that are unsolvable or impractical today. These new computational capabilities will fundamentally change business workflows, discover products, and create new business models. To unlock this value, organizations will need quantum skills and expertise.
