I sat in on a seminar with the Cleveland Clinic and IBM as they have a partnership around quantum, and one of the big problems they were working on was using it to speed up drug discovery. I don't recall if they have solved problems completely yet, but it has sped up the discovery process by orders of magnitude.
- mechagodzilla 3y agoNothing involving quantum computing has sped up the 'drug discovery' process by orders of magnitude. At best it has 'accelerated' some toy QM problem that is likely a dozen steps removed from anything you could call drug discovery. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I've yet to see any non-trivial computational chemistry work done on quantum computers.
