Episode notes
Software‑Hardware Co‑Design Is Essential
- Super.tech bridges software and hardware because current quantum stacks require tight co-design.
- Pranav Gokhale says programmers today must manage device-level constraints similar to early classical computing.
Hide Backend Choice Behind An API
- Abstract backend differences from users by providing an application‑centric API.
- Route customer problems to the best quantum backend without forcing the user to choose hardware.
Match Hardware To Application Tradeoffs
- Hardware types trade latency versus error rates: superconducting is fast but noisier; trapped ions are slower with longer coherence.
- Super.tech plans to benchmark and choose platforms based on application latency and error tolerance.
