@demishassabis @elonmusk There’s no convincing evidence yet that AI can predict the quantum properties of matter—the very bedrock of fundamental science. We might just have to give it the keys to a quantum computer.

@elonmusk I feel like it might be possible with the help of AI tools to find some very elegant and compact descriptions that explain some of the deepest mysteries of the universe, but it might take a lot of pattern processing and matching to get there...

It’s 2am again, my favourite time, and as always reality is still staring me in the face 🧐

@davidasinclair Any big recent discovery (that’s easy to explain) driving this progress?

🚀 iQuHack is in full motion at @MIT ! ⚛️ Just wrapped up an amazing weekend here on campus. It was great to be back at my alma mater and see hundreds of students competing in the hackathon -- both on campus and across the world -- with top students solving hard peaked circuits puzzles. Huge congrats to the winners! 🏆 It is exciting to see the remarkable growth of the quantum community globally. A big thank you to the organizers for putting together such a great event. We will be back next year! 🔥

IonQ founder Chris Monroe in 2025: On commercialization, Monroe stated: "Some people say, well, it's (quantum computing) already here, it's in a few years. It's certainly not, otherwise they would be all over the place. The money would – the floodgates would open into quantum computing companies. That hasn't happened yet because there's no useful commercial app yet. And our quantum computers are still not powerful enough to even beat my laptop." On timeline, he was even more blunt: "It will probably happen at some point. And if you have to peck me down – you can ask me later, I guess – but it's not next year. It's probably not 5 years."

This is actually bearish, not bullish.

@JKeynesAlpha @LiebermanAustin This is not true for all quantum devices. Here my team presents a problem that quantum can solve in hours that will take years in largest supercomputers. I will pay 20k if you prove me wrong tomshardware.com/tech-industry/…

Today, Armenian Foreign Minister @AraratMirzoyan and I announced the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP) Implementation Framework. It builds on the commitments of @POTUS’s historic peace summit just five months ago between Armenia and Azerbaijan. The TRIPP will unlock the South Caucasus’ potential in trade, transit, and energy flows—boosting prosperity and security throughout the region.

🚨: Google’s quantum chip solved in five minutes a problem that would take 10 septillion years. Physicists say it “proved” we live in a multiverse!

We demonstrated verifiable quantum advantage with Quantum Echoes. Running 13,000x faster than leading supercomputers, this represents a significant step toward real-world applications. Watch → goo.gle/48Gnbtl

@preskill @VitalikButerin you might find this advances in quantum comptuing interesting. Particularly results on verifiable quantum advantage by @BlueQubitIO (arxiv.org/abs/2510.25838)

Every December since 2017, I've delivered a keynote at Q2B Silicon Valley, commenting on recent progress in quantum computing. Here is what I said this time. It's been a good year for quantum. quantumfrontiers.com/2025/12/26/qua…

Amazing blog by John Preskill (@preskill) on the latest advances in quantum computing 2025. Great to see a shoutout to BlueQubit's work on verifiable quantum advantage 🚀 quantumfrontiers.com/2025/12/26/qua…

What a way to close out the year! 🚀 I’ve had an exhilarating couple of weeks engaging with some of the brightest minds in the quantum industry. It was a privilege to present @BlueQubitIO 's recent work on peaked circuits and the Quantum Advantage Challenge to the teams at @GoogleQuantumAI and @PsiQuantum , as well as at the Q2B conference. As we look toward the horizon, my conviction is stronger than ever: 🔹 2025 and 2026 will go down in history as years of Scientific Quantum Advantage. 🔹 It is clear that quantum computers have reached critical capabilities -- the ball is now in the court of algorithms experts to unlock their true potential. 🔹 The gap between quantum and classical will continue to grow exponentially over the next couple of years. 🔹 The race for Commercial Quantum Advantage is officially on. I am super excited about the upcoming quantum advantage projects @BlueQubitIO has in the pipeline. We are just getting started. 🔥

@BlueQubitIO Link to the Challenge: app.bluequbit.io/hackathons/GFg…

My team at @BlueQubitIO published a scientific article claiming a quantum advantage for peaked circuits (paper in the comments) 🔥 The goal of our approach is to make it crystal clear how quantum machines can reliably solve problems that are intractable even for the largest supercomputers on Earth (such as Colossus) ⚛️💻 To spice things up and to help build broad understanding and trust in quantum advantage, we are launching a challenge 🧠 🚀 🔐 Quantum Advantage Challenge: Beat a Quantum Computer & Win 0.25 BTC 🔷 Prize: 0.25 BTC (~$20,000) 🔷 Task: Solve 5 increasingly difficult peaked-circuit puzzles 🔷 Constraint: Each puzzle must be solved using only classical computing in under 2 hours If you’re curious, skeptical, or just love a good puzzle, we’d love to see you take a shot. Link to the Quantum Advantage Challenge is in the comments!

@MartinShkreli Why then Quantiniuum?

everyone but Quantinuum (private) was left out of Project Genesis. $IONQ $QBTS $RGTI $QUBT $BTQ that's because AI doesn't intersect with quantum, at all

@MartinShkreli Because they actually build powerful machines. Check out our recent paper on Quantinuum arxiv.org/abs/2510.25838

Exciting expansion! @Waymo now serves the whole SF Bay Area Peninsula from SF to San Jose and is taking riders on freeways. waymo.com/blog/2025/11/t…

Awesome to see our recent paper from the @BlueQubitIO team on heuristic quantum advantage with peaked circuits highlighted by Scott Aaronson 🚀, alongside @GoogleQuantumAI's OTOC work and @QuantinuumQC's Helios announcement. arXiv: 2510.25838 Post: scottaaronson.blog/?p=9325 Quantum is entering a beyond-classical era where smart algorithms can be tested and explored. The next few years are going to be a lot of fun for quantum. ⚛️
