Conductor Quantum Launches: Quantum Computers on Silicon Chips Using AI

Conductor Quantum recently launched!

‍

<sup>"AI software to enable scalable semiconductor quantum computers."

Tl;dr:</sup>

^{Conductor Quantum is using AI software to create qubits in semiconductor chips to build quantum computers at scale.}

^{The two founders met during their PhDs at Oxford. They have experience at 5 quantum companies and institutions, plus 4 publications between them.}

^{Conductor Quantum is launching the first publicly available API to classify quantum transport features in semiconductors.}

Founded by Brandon Severin & Joel Pendleton

CEO, Brandon – Brandon developed AI for Quantum Computing in Silicon during his PhD at Oxford. Over the past four years, Brandon has worked with four top quantum research institutions on software for quantum device control and has four publications, including one in Nature.

CTO, Joel – Joel has shipped software at four deep tech companies and has worked with a series of quantum devices ranging from carbon nanotubes to superconducting circuits. Joel studied Physics at UCL and dropped out of his PhD at Oxford to start Conductor Quantum.

During Joel’s PhD at Oxford, he launched Feynman.ai— an AI science research assistant— with Brandon, which they bootstrapped to 300 signups within a month of launch.

😯 The Problem

• Quantum computers will revolutionize drug discovery and material development as we will, for the first time, be able to accurately simulate nature at its most fundamental level.
• Leveraging the trillion-dollar semiconductor industry, silicon chips offer a scalable architecture for building quantum computers.

→ Currently, quantum engineers spend days, sometimes weeks, manually configuring silicon chips to create a single quantum bit (qubit), analogous to a bit in a classical computer.

‍→ We need millions, if not billions, of qubits to make a useful quantum computer. Automation software to create qubits at scale is vital to realize this goal.

‍

‍✅ Their Solution - AI software to create qubits

• Conductor Quantum is building leading AI software that creates qubits by learning and understanding the principles of quantum transport in semiconductor chips.
• Their AI software will replace the human in the loop, unlocking rapid qubit generation and fabrication feedback iteration cycles.
• Automatic qubit creation and control are the foundation of the first quantum operating system on semiconductor chips.
