Quantum vs. Traffic: A Real-World Optimization Use Case — with Tal David of Quantum Art

Traffic congestion isn't just a daily annoyance; it’s a multi-billion dollar drain on the global economy. In this episode, we explore a concrete, real-world application of quantum computing that aims to solve this problem today. Tal David, Co-founder and CEO of Quantum Art, joins host Konstantinos Karagiannis to discuss the company’s major new partnership with Ayalon Highways in Israel. Tal breaks down how they are moving beyond theoretical simulations to use quantum algorithms for synchronizing traffic lights and managing flow in metropolitan areas, potentially reducing commute times and optimizing city planning in ways classical computers simply can't handle.

Beyond the use case, Tal takes us under the hood of Quantum Art’s unique trapped-ion architecture. Unlike competitors that rely on physically shuttling ions, Quantum Art utilizes optical tweezers and massive multi-qubit gates to perform operations on dozens of qubits at once, drastically improving speed and fidelity. We also dive into their aggressive roadmap, which includes a 50-qubit system launching soon, a 1,000-qubit "Perspective" system targeted for 2027, and how they are leveraging NVIDIA technology to power the hybrid future of quantum-classical processing.
