⚡ Quantum Brief
IBM CEO Arvind Krishna outlined a 2026-2030 timeline for determining quantum computing’s commercial viability during the World Government Summit in Dubai. Krishna emphasized quantum’s potential to revolutionize industries like drug discovery and logistics but stressed practical applications must surpass classical computers to justify IBM’s $20B+ investment. The CEO noted error correction remains the biggest hurdle, with IBM targeting fault-tolerant systems by decade’s end to unlock reliable quantum advantage. He revealed IBM’s roadmap includes hybrid quantum-classical systems as a transitional phase, aiming to prove utility before full-scale quantum supremacy is achieved. Krishna cautioned that success hinges on partnerships with governments and enterprises to co-develop real-world use cases, signaling a shift from lab experiments to market-ready solutions.
