IBM: A Glimpse At Computing's Quantum-Centric Future
StorageNewsletter.com, Friday, January 30th, 2026
Researchers are already combining CPUs, GPUs, and QPUs into demonstrations of quantum-centric supercomputing.
IBM is a leader in quantum computing-but the company's vision encapsulates the future of computing overall. In reality, quantum will be one piece of a paradigm combining every computing tool available to solve problems beyond anything that's possible today.
This has long been IBM's vision, and a growing body of results from its partners at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, AMD, RIKEN, Algorithmiq, and the broader quantum community is now bringing it to life. These advances showcase how state-of-the-art GPUs, working alongside quantum processing units (QPUs), can accelerate workflows and enhance the overall fidelity of quantum computations.
