But I will tell you, when you think about advice for founders, when you think about naming something and advice is worth what you pay for it...
but think of a name that can become iconic.
And if you, that means it's got to sound very fresh and new and different.
And if every other quorum company has a Q in it, maybe you try avoiding that.
Uh, and that's what led me to Sigildry.
Sigildry.
I love this name.
It's from a Patrick Rothfuss novel.
Uh, and it was an American writer.
He wrote this incredible novel called name of the wind that came out in mid 2000, 2010 or so.
Um,
Anyway, so Sigildry is, we're building quantum accelerated AI servers for the data center to bring quantum technologies directly into the data center.
It acts as a coprocessor for the GPU or XPU pods that have become the unit of compute in AI infrastructure today.
And we're based in Ann Arbor in San Francisco.
Our hardware development is here in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where it is hot and humid today.
And...
Our AI research team is right there in downtown San Francisco.
Well, first of all, quantum hardware is going to address a lot of different computational challenges today, right?
So quantum computers are able to solve problems that are impossible or very challenging to solve with any form of classical computing, no matter what scale it reaches.
So at Sigildry, we're focused on applying that capability specifically to some of the computational challenges in AI to reduce the power and reduce the costs associated with training and deploying these models at a very large scale.
