Rigetti Computing Leverages Nvidia and Chiplets to Outpace IBM and Google in Quantum Race

Rigetti Computing has validated its chiplet-based approach, achieving a 99.5% median 2-qubit gate fidelity in its Cepheus-1-36Q system. The company's proprietary architecture allows for partnerships with Nvidia and other technology providers, positioning it to outpace IBM and Google in the quantum race. Rigetti's roadmap includes a 100+ qubit system planned for the end of 2025.

Rigetti Computing Inc. (RGTI) has made significant strides in the quantum computing arena, with its proprietary chiplet architecture proving to be a game-changer. The company recently achieved a 99.5% median 2-qubit gate fidelity in its Cepheus-1-36Q system, which combines four 9-qubit chiplets into the largest multi-chip quantum computer on the market EXCLUSIVE: Rigetti Leverages Nvidia, Chiplets To Outpace IBM And Google In Quantum Race^[1].

This milestone underscores Rigetti's commitment to error correction and qubit scaling. CEO Subodh Kulkarni highlighted that the company's 2025 roadmap includes a 100+ qubit system, aiming to achieve quantum advantage by the end of the year EXCLUSIVE: Rigetti Leverages Nvidia, Chiplets To Outpace IBM And Google In Quantum Race^[1].

Rigetti's architecture is not only innovative but also allows for strategic partnerships. The company is leveraging Nvidia Corp's (NVDA) CUDA-q and other specialized partners to execute faster and maintain flexibility across hardware and software layers. This modular approach positions Rigetti to outpace competitors like IBM (NYSE:IBM) and Alphabet Inc.'s Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL), which are also focusing on error-corrected qubits EXCLUSIVE: Rigetti Leverages Nvidia, Chiplets To Outpace IBM And Google In Quantum Race^[1].

Moreover, Rigetti's collaboration with technology providers like Nvidia not only enhances its quantum computing capabilities but also aligns with broader industry trends. For instance, Nvidia's graphics processing units (GPUs) are being integrated into next-generation satellites by companies like Planet, which are designed to perform AI at the edge Planet Unveils Next-Gen Owl Satellites With 1 Meter Resolution, Nvidia GPUs^[2].

These advancements provide investors with tangible milestones to monitor. As IBM and Google continue to scale error-corrected qubits, Rigetti's validated roadmap offers measurable progress towards its 2025 100+ qubit target.
