  • Neon pink and blue lines randomly connect spheres containing arrows. The spheres are organized in three horizontal rows and additional lines extend off the edges of the image.

    Researchers Explore How Quantum Computers—and Their Errors—May Enhance AI

    July 22, 2026

    Researchers at JQI and their collaborators explored how the probabilistic randomness of quantum computers, and their errors, may be beneficial to some AI models that are run on a quantum computer. By injecting various amounts of noise and quantum randomness during the operation of a basic AI model, the team determined that adding just the right amount improved its performance.

  • Rough yellow in orange lines with purple haze extend from the left and right. To the right of the center of the image the right line curves upward and the right line curves downward before they can intersect.

    Repurposing Qubit Tech to Explore Exotic Superconductivity

    November 19, 2024

    The established knowledge and technical infrastructure from decades of quantum research are allowing researchers to harness quantum technologies in unexpected, innovative ways and creating new research opportunities. In a paper published in the journal Nature Physics, a collaboration between theorists at JQI and experimentalists at Harvard University presented a technique that repurposes the technology of superconducting circuits to study samples with exotic forms of superconductivity. The collaboration demonstrated that by building samples of interest into a superconducting circuit they could spy on exotic superconducting behaviors that have eluded existing measurement techniques.

  • Eight light blue spheres are spread out in space and are connected by grey lines.

    A Focused Approach Can Help Untangle Messy Quantum Scrambling Problems

    April 4, 2024

    The world is a cluttered, noisy place, and the ability to effectively focus is a valuable skill. Researchers at JQI have identified a new way to focus their attention and obtain useful insights into the way information associated with a configuration of interacting particles gets dispersed and effectively lost over time. Their technique focuses on a single feature that describes how various amounts of energy can be held by different configurations a quantum system. The approach provides insight into how a collection of quantum particles can evolve without the researchers having to grapple with the intricacies of the interactions that make the system change over time.
