📅 - Rigetti Computing has reached a key technical milestone in quantum performance, reporting a 99.5% median two-qubit gate fidelity on its new modular 36-qubit system. This achievement represents a significant advancement in the company's quantum roadmap, cutting its previous two-qubit gate error rate in half compared to its earlier 84-qubit Ankaa-3 system.
The milestone underscores Rigetti's ongoing push toward scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing and strengthens its position among leading quantum hardware developers.
The 36-qubit system is built on Rigetti's proprietary modular chip architecture, which integrates four 9-qubit "chiplets" into a unified lattice. This approach allows [...][... Check source for end of article ...]

📅 - Global IT Spending to Grow 7.9% in 2025, Driven by AI Push - In the face of global economic and geopolitical uncertainty, worldwide IT spending is projected to grow by 7.9% in 2025, reaching $5.43 trillion, according to the latest forecast by Gartner, Inc. This increase - driven largely by ongoing artificial intelligence initiatives - comes amid what Gartner analysts describe as a deliberate "uncertainty pause" in new investment across multiple sectors, including IT.
Despite the pause, IT budgets remain intact. Rather than slashing funding, enterprises are choosing to delay net-new investments as they navigate increasingly volatile global conditions. Gartner's analysis suggests that this caution is not rooted in shrinking resources, but rather in [...]
