Hi, Reddit! We’re Jerry Chow and Oliver Dial, and we’re leading IBM’s mission to bring useful quantum computing to the world. Quantum is evolving fast, and we’re here to talk about how we hope it will change the future of computing. AMA!

Academic discussion of all things quantum computing from hardware through algorithms. Not the place for business speculation, memes, or philosophy. Hi Redditors! I’m Jerry Chow, CTO of Quantum-Centric Supercomputing at IBM and an IBM Fellow. I led the IBM Quantum team that developed and deployed IBM Quantum System Two, our first modular quantum computer and a major milestone toward quantum-centric supercomputing. I also helped deliver our best-performing quantum processors available today, including IBM Quantum Heron and IBM Quantum Nighthawk. These systems are available to our users via IBM Quantum Platform and are housed in IBM’s quantum data centers or co-located with clients around the world. My background is in superconducting qubit design, measurement, and system integration. I’ve been at IBM since 2010 and co-led the team that put the first quantum computer on the cloud. I joined IBM after I earned my Ph.D. in physics from Yale University, where I helped implement the first quantum processor with superconducting qubits. And I’m Oliver Dial, Vice President of IBM Quantum Systems and an IBM Fellow. I work across IBM’s quantum hardware and software teams to ensure our systems come together into a seamless quantum experience. I received my PhD from MIT in 2007 for research on two-dimensional electron and hole systems. I entered quantum computing as a post-doc at Harvard, where I demonstrated the first two-qubit gate between semiconductor singlet-triplet qubits and led early charge noise spectroscopy work. I joined IBM in 2012 as a research scientist. Outside of work, my hobbies include spending time with my family -- or sleeping! That’s all the time we have, folks.
