I’d love the session to cover:

  • what is a true logical Qubit definition (decoherence is a time-related function, which must exceed the compute time). The projections are all over the place because they don’t take into account not just the number of Qubits needed, but their stability duration.
  • When will it be possible to apply QC to AI, and in what applications?
    Thank you
