IBM Says Key Quantum Computing Algorithm Can Run on Conventional AMD Chips

IBM demonstrated its quantum error-correcting algorithm running 10 times faster than needed on affordable AMD chips, advancing efforts to commercialize quantum computing.

  • On Friday, IBM announced in San Francisco it can run a key quantum error-correcting algorithm on commonly available Advanced Micro Devices field-programmable gate arrays, with a Reuters-seen paper showing real-time operation.
  • Because qubits are error-prone, the algorithm developed in June by IBM addresses these errors and Gambetta said the work finished a year early and runs 10 times faster than needed.
  • AMD's expanding role is visible as its hardware powers Supermicro's AI servers and supports IBM's quantum breakthrough, while partnering with OpenAI to supply AI computing power.
  • After the announcement, Advanced Micro Devices shares surged 7.6% Friday as quantum-related stocks rallied, boosting AMD’s year-to-date gains over 107%.
  • Facing competition from Microsoft and Alphabet's Google, IBM's Starling project aims for 2029 commercialization, while Bank of America analyst Vivek Arya notes multi-year deals could bring substantial revenue with AMD supplying six gigawatts to OpenAI.
