When quantum is seemingly everywhere and in everything, is it possible to spin true value out of the hype cycle? DARPA is attempting just that — armed with a healthy dose of skepticism, scientific rigor, and industry and academic expertise.
The Quantum Benchmarking Initiative (QBI) will benchmark quantum computing applications and algorithms as well as significantly expand our efforts to validate quantum computer hardware progress. DARPA’s goal is to determine if it’s possible to actually build an industrially useful quantum computer much faster than conventional predictions.
QBI aims to significantly increase engagement with and funding for quantum computing hardware companies that believe they have what it takes to make it through DARPA’s rigorous verification and validation process.
