OPEN TALK: Quantum Computing with Qiskit
Join on Hopin
This brief talk by IBM Quantum Developer Advocate James Weaver introduces quantum computing with Qiskit to classical developers, and touches on the following concepts:
- Contrasting classical and quantum computing
- Axioms of quantum mechanics with Grumpy Cat
- Using IBM Quantum Circuit Composer
- Using IBM Quantum Lab (Python notebooks)
- Resources and next steps for attendees
OPEN Talk: Quantum Computing Workshop with Qiskit
Join on HopinThe buzz about quantum computing has been rapidly increasing lately, and a growing number of developers have been looking into the subject. Concepts developers typically find challenging after cursory investigation of quantum computing include: superpositions of quantum bits (qubits), quantum gates, quantum entanglement (Einstein’s “spooky actions at a distance”), and the relevance of Schrödinger’s famous cat.
In this workshop, James Weaver gives a gentle introduction to quantum computing, followed by leading the participants in hands-on activities that leverage IBM Quantum simulators and computers.
