It's not just about qubit count. It's about what you can accomplish with them. @IBM Quantum engineers Andrew Wack and Holger Haas discuss IBM Nighthawk R2 and why speed is emerging as a critical benchmark alongside scale and quality in quantum computing: youtube.com/watch?v=IjmEHOZo…

Convenience when you want it, control when you need it. Directed execution gives you explicit, client-side control over how your circuits run on IBM Quantum hardware—without trading off performance. Upgrade to qiskit-ibm-runtime 0.50.0 to get started: ibm.com/quantum/blog/directe…

Replying to @IBMQuantum
@IBMQuantum Nighthawk R2 is IBM's fastest processor yet. Fire Opal made it faster. Our fermionic simulation benchmark on ibm_phoenix ran 12x faster, with less than 1% deviation. Read the results, then run your own circuits with Fire Opal: buff.ly/sEU8uEo #Qiskit

There is no single best portfolio when optimizing for return, risk, and diversification. There is only a Pareto front of trade-offs. In our #Qiskit tutorial, learn how to use quantum approximate multi-objective optimization to explore these trade-offs: quantum.cloud.ibm.com/docs/e…
