  IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 90 – Of Algorithms and Analogies

  Sep 22, 202635 min

  I spoke with Dr. Ulrich Hoff, Quantum Engagement Specialist at Kvantify, about Koffee and Qrunch for quantum chemistry, why Qrunch features the variational quantum eigensolver so prominently, the use of Nvidia’s DGX-Spark to simulate 60-80 qubits, onion layers and other analogies, the significance of stressing “practical advantage,” the definition of “intermediate algorithms,” and more.

  IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 89 – Is anyone still listening?

  Aug 26, 20261h 19m

  I try to keep these podcasts to about 20 minutes, but Q-CTRL just has way, way, way too much going on. So go grab yourself a fresh cup of Joe, kick back in your favorite chair, and relax as Alex Shih, VP of Product at Q-CTRL, and I speak about Q-CTRL’s growth, Ironstone Opal for GPS-free navigation, Boulder Opal for quantum control, Fire Opal for error suppression, Black Opal for learning, and so much more. Alex Shih (LinkedIn) Q-CTRL (website) Q-CTRL (LinkedIn) Ironstone Opal Boulder Opal Fire Opal Black Opal I couldn’t find everything I referenced during the recording, but here’s a bunch of stuff I’ve written about Q-CTRL over the years. Now that I look at the list in its almost-entirety, I’ve probably written more about Q-CTRL than any other company, quantum or otherwise. This is definitely not a complete list. 5/25/2026 Q-CTRL’s Fire Opal on IonQ [premium] 3/29/2026 #wellplayed [premium] 3/24/2026 #82: This podcast is out of control.

  IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 87 – Your entropy isn’t random enough.

  Jul 29, 202628 min

  I spoke with Denis Mandich, CTO of Qrypt, about his former-CIA point of view about quantum and cryptography, how Qrypt generates identical keys at multiple endpoints, why a non-certified single QRNG isn’t good enough, how the emergence of entanglement-based quantum networks would change his sales pitch, Nvidia’s role in Qrypt’s non-computing quantum technology, non-cryptographic QRNG applications, and more.
