Quantum computing has quickly shifted from futuristic theory to one of the most closely watched frontiers in technology. While the space is still early-stage, investors are increasingly paying attention as partnerships and breakthroughs begin to hint at real-world applications. Much like artificial intelligence (AI) a few years ago, quantum could redefine computing over the next decade.
One of the newest entrants making a serious move is Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). Known for its CPUs and GPUs that rival Intel (INTC) and Nvidia (NVDA), AMD is now teaming up with IBM (IBM) to explore hybrid quantum-classical architectures. The goal Over the next five years, AMD will be partnering with IBM to try and achieve its quantum computing goals, to build scalable, open-source platforms.
