In this podcast, the Radio Free HPC team looks at some new developments in the Quantum Computing ecosystem:
- Rigetti Computing helps Foster Quantum Machine Learning Startup Ecosystem
- IEEE Approves Standards Project for Quantum Computing Definitions
After that, we do our Catch of the Week:
- Rich is impressed with the ASUS B250 Mining Expert motherboard that has 19 PCIe slots for GPUs.
- Henry is feeling good about his decision to not get an Amazon Echo with this story about security vulnerabilities in Alexa. “We achieve this by transforming a smartphone into an active sonar system that emits a combination of a sonar pulse and music and listens to the re ections of humans in the environment.”
- One of the reported hackers of the OPM was caught at LAX airport this week. The hackers gained access to millions of sensitive U.S. records from the Office of Personnel Management.
I enjoyed the laugh about Canadians and quantum computing. Note that Chad Regetti – CEO of Regetti Quantum computing, is from Canada as well.
