Dear quantum folks,
Rigetti quantum computing is a startup that builds impressive superconducting quantum
computers. They are going to be running a workshop at MIT this
coming Tuesday, April 9th, from 3-5pm in the Haus room, 36-428. The purpose of the
workshop is to introduce their devices to the community, and to give a tutorial on how to
program them. This is a real opportunity for people who would like to do experiments
with real quantum computers: like IBM, Rigetti are making their quantum computers
available on the cloud for you to use for your own experiments. Plus, refreshments
will be served!
Please join us and take a look. If you want to play around with their interface
beforehand, you can find tutorials and demos for the Rigetti devices at
