Scott Crowder of IBM joins us to discuss quantum computing and its potential to change the world of technology.
Quantum Computing and Its Impact

Scott leads the quantum computing efforts at IBM (https://killerinnovations.com/tim-baj...) . Quantum computing is an entirely different information science than what is considered classical computing. Quantum scales exponentially, whereas classical scales linearly. Data with structure, especially machine learning, and simulating quantum mechanics can't be done on a classical computer. Because of advances in technology, energy efficiency has dramatically increased over the last 70 years but still isn't linear. With quantum computing, every time a cubit is added to a system, the space that can be explored is doubled. This means that computing power is immensely more significant and more efficient. As Scott put it, it's "sci-fi come to life (https://philmckinney.com/should-you-t...) ."
Areas of focus

To win in the quantum space, several things need to be done. The technology needs developing, as there is a ton of innovation required. Quantum computing needs to be simplified, which is one of IBM's goals. They also want to make the technology available to as many people as possible. IBM believes they will be the first to market quantum computers as doing more than classical computers. 
IBM and Collaboration

IBM has one of the largest userbases of people exploring quantum computing. There are over twenty quantum computers available on the cloud today, with systems worldwide. They have a more open-access platform for exploration. They also have a platform with higher quality and capacity systems they provide to their partners for more profound research. They collaborate (https://killerinnovations.com/alan-pr...) with over 175 industry, academic, and research institutions to identify ways to leverage the technology. IBM has adopted the attitude of "not doing everything on their own." Scott says if they understand the problem (https://killerinnovations.com/peter-l...) better, they will create better technologies.
