In this episode of the Qubit Value Podcast, we dive into the "Early Utility Scale" era of quantum computing as we break down the critical release of Cirq 1.6.1. We explore how this new stable baseline addresses noise modeling issues and introduces "Willow Pink," a digital twin configuration designed to validate routing and error strategies on 100+ qubit devices without booking expensive hardware time. The discussion also covers essential developer updates, including the mandatory migration to...

Cirq and quantum computing: hardware-aware programming
In this episode, we declare the end of the experimental NISQ era and the arrival of "Utility Scale" quantum computing, where 100+ qubit processors are finally delivering tangible value. We dive deep into the necessity of "hardware-aware" programming using frameworks like Cirq, explaining why developers can no longer treat the chip as a black box but must instead manage gate timing, "moments," and error mitigation strategies like Zero Noise Extrapolation. We also explore the critical rol...
