Practical Quantum Computing
summary
Claims concrete wins: protein design by Minton AI moves to live virus testing against COVID‑19, Save‑On‑Foods: 25 hours → 2 minutes for a logistics task, and Volkswagen cuts paint‑change waste ~80%. Platform details: a 5,000‑qubit D‑Wave machine is available via Leap cloud, problems submitted with the Ocean SDK + Leap hybrid solvers (Python examples run in the IDE). Benchmarks reported include ~100× on some instances and a published result claiming ~3,000,000× faster relaxation than optimized classical algorithms.
