Zapata Computing plans to build algorithms for companies that want to experiment with quantum computers.
A complex field: In quantum computing, it’s not just the computers themselves that are hard to build. They also need specialized software that’s tailored to get the best out of the machines.
The news: Yesterday, Zapata Computing launched with goal of offering a range of ready-made software that companies can use to tap the immense processing power quantum computers promise to deliver. Essentially, it wants to help a slew of companies use the technology without them needing an in-house specialist.
Why it matters: Zapata could end up with a bird’s-eye view of how various applications perform on a range of quantum computers, giving it a big advantage. Although it’s unclear whether quantum computing will make a difference in some areas, such as machine learning—early signs indicate it might.
