Today is QUANTUM DAY at NVIDIA GTC 2025! CEO Jensen Huang is kicking off the day with a panel discussion that he is moderating with a number of leaders in the quantum universe. Watch how industry analyst settle into their seats at the San Jose Civic Center. It’s quite telling and a must watch. Witness as they make a fuss about a coffee stain, which apparently is one of their key takeaways from GTC 2025! Enjoy!

I was hoping to hear more about how NVIDIA is helping these guys with the quantum tooling research and some of the stuff they talked about earlier such as the annealing approach and other methods and modalities. Lost opportunity.
It’s getting better. The enablement angle is what I think Jensen should have kicked off with. Libraries, tools, NVIDIA support of the ecosystems, good.
Still waiting for how NVIDIA tech and tools are being used to hit this 100 logical error-corrected qubits by 2030. 1,000 problems.
Impression, quantum computing is in early phases of getting out of the lab. Seems like most applications are classical supercomputing domains in scientific research. Maybe it is the next stage in supercomputing for applications supercomputers have been used for since Cray 1.
Trapped Ion research and approach is over 30-years. 1995.
Conclusion: Quantum is still a 30+ year old research item that has years if not decades to go match the exploding hype. Yes, there is progress as there should be. Key applications - a lot of stuff in the fields of deep scientific research like using quantum computing to figure out what is beyond quantum mechanics that would bore most people to death. I'm already reading sensationalized hyperbolic nonsense coming out this Quantum Day. Please, don't encourage it. It's not productive. It doesn't help. #gtc25
Lots of talk about positioning. Not sure the panel is landing. I do like the notion that is is a tool for deep scientific research. The idea that we are going to be talking Q PC next year is patently nonsensical. Foundational science research tool. Where we stand.

1moI agree that quantum computing won’t replace classical computing. I also don’t think that accelerated computing will replace the non-accelerated stuff. Each has a purpose and it’s efficiency in addressing a computing and application domain. Even a hand calculator or app will have its purpose. A guess a new stage of heterogeneous computing. How do you use all this stuff working together to solve problems and deliver value.
