back to article Open Compute Project figuring out how to get quantum computers into classical datacenters

The Open Compute Project (OCP) has commenced a workstream to learn how to deploy quantum computers alongside classical high performance computers in the same datacenter. The org will gather experiences from the few facilities that have already deployed quantum systems and try to boil them down into “open specifications, best …

            Dead then ?

            Clearly decoherence can be lethal.

            Look after your wave function and it will look after you. Or should that be rifle ?

    I expect Raspberry Pi 6 to have at least 32 qubits.

      So if they successfully get QC working on a Pi, does that mean the proof will be in the pudding?...

        That would need silver threepenny qubits.

      I expect Raspberry Pi 6 to have at least 32 qubits.

      Those 32 qb might be a lot cheaper than 8Gb of LPDDR4 when the Rpi6 launches.

    Stupid question

    Sorry for the ignorance but what do you do with such a 20-qubit quantum computer (besides gloating that you have one)?
