Deep dive interview QuEra CCO Yuval Boger

“Quantum computers today still can’t outperformclassical systems, and that’s exactly why this moment matters.”That was one of thefirst things Yuval Boger (CCO, QuEra)told me during our deep dive on Beyond theQubit.And it genuinelyreframed how I look at the entire quantum industry.Here’swhat most people miss 👇1. Quantum today isn’tabout solving problems. It’s about preparing for the moment it can.Yuval explained thatwith fewer than ~50 perfect qubits, a supercomputer can simulate everythinganyway.So the currentsystems, noisy, small, early,  are notthe point.What matters is trajectory.QuEra’s mission?➡️ Build quantum computers with hundreds, thousands, andeventually tens of thousands ofhigh-fidelity neutral-atom qubits. Because that’s where classical methodsbreak,  and quantum starts to matter. 2. Neutral atoms don’t just improve quantum computing.They change the rules.Most qubittechnologies are manufactured.Neutral atoms are natural, identical, and stable at room temperature.A few thingssurprised me: This isn’ttheoretical. It’s running today on AWS Braket. 3. One advantage people underrate: MIT +Harvard → QuEraFour founders camefrom MIT and Harvard.Two still contributeweekly.Neutral-atom systemsevolve fast in academia,  beingphysically close lets QuEra commercialize breakthroughs months or even yearsahead of competitors That proximityenables: It’s an unfair advantage, in the best possible way. 4. Yuval’s biggest lesson (and the most transferableone): customer curiosityNot physics.Not algorithms.Not hardware.➡️Customer curiosity.He listens not forwhat customers say today, but for what they’ll need 18 months from now.It’s a mindset thatcontributed to QuEra’s roadmap. #QuantumComputing,#QuantumTechnology #DeepTech, #BeyondTheQubit, #QuEra, #NeutralAtoms#QuantumHardware,#FutureOfComputing, #QuantumAdvantage, #RydbergAtoms, #TechInnovation#ScienceAndTechnology,#FrontierTech, #MIT, #Harvard, #Podcast @Yuval Boger@QuEra https://youtu.be/XEh6PiLnXjchttps://open.spotify.com/episode/1SyBtguc5fqEQe1PivVdrs?si=z0aHKAUrRFSnQddfSal2zQ  📌 Disclaimer: This post is shared on a personal basis and I do notrepresent any company
