Last week, we launched our gate-model quantum computing simulator beta program.

For the first time, leading commercial and research organizations in the beta program will have the opportunity to experiment with error-aware programming in preparation for D-Wave's forthcoming gate-model systems.

But what is error awareness, and why does it matter for gate-model quantum computing?  Error awareness provides visibility into errors as they occur and the ability to respond to them during computation.

This is a unique capability enabled by the error detection abilities of D-Wave's dual-rail qubit architecture combined with real-time quantum-classical control. We believe error awareness creates a more efficient path to quantum error correction, and ultimately, fault-tolerant gate-model quantum computers.
