AI-Powered Digital Twins for Quantum Hardware — with Quantum Elements

The “Constellation Platform” is revolutionizing the path to fault-tolerant quantum computing. Rather than relying on traditional state vector simulations that hit a wall at 50 qubits, this platform from Quantum Elements uses a breakthrough method, stochastic compression, to create realistic digital twins of quantum hardware at scale. This approach allows developers to simulate the complex time evolution of a system, including specific noise models such as crosstalk and decoherence, without the high cost of running thousands of shots on physical QPUs.   Host Konstantinos Karagiannis sits down with Izhar Medalsy, co-founder and CEO of Quantum Elements, to also explore the cutting-edge intersection of AI and quantum engineering, highlighting a “quantum copilot” in Constellation powered by Claude. This AI-native platform doesn't just help write context-specific code; it also acts as a virtual supervisor that can troubleshoot failed experiments by comparing real-world results with first-principles simulations. Whether you are a professional looking to optimize algorithms through advanced error suppression or a researcher seeking a hardware-agnostic layer to run code across different vendors, listen and learn how digital virtualization might play a key role. For more information on Quantum Elements, visit https://quantumelements.ai/.   Visit Protiviti at www.protiviti.com/US-en/technology-consulting/quantum-computing-services to learn more about how Protiviti is helping organizations get post-quantum ready.  Follow host Konstantinos Karagiannis on all socials: @KonstantHacker             Questions and comments are welcome!  Theme song by David Schwartz, copyright 2021.  The views expressed by the participants of this program are their own and do not represent the views of, nor are they endorsed by, Protiviti Inc., The Post-Quantum World, or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, shareholders, or subsidiaries.  None of the content should be considered investment advice, as an offer or solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, or as an endorsement of any company, security, fund, or other securities or non-securities offering.
