Discover how Alice & Bob is building a practical quantum computer using Cat Qubits. To achieve this, five major milestones must be overcome in order to create a quantum computer capable of solving meaningful problems by the end of the decade.
This is the fourth part of Alice & Bob’s whitepaper: “Think Inside The Box”, narrated by Christopher Bishop.

Errors are the biggest challenge in building a practical quantum computer. Quantum hardware must overcome decoherence and correct these errors, but there’s a price to pay. Tune in to learn about qubits, the nature of errors, and the methods used for error correction.
This is the second part of Alice & Bob’s whitepaper: “Think Inside The Box”, narrated by Christopher Bishop.
