Qlippy is a retrieval‑augmented generative AI assistant designed to support reproducible quantum software development. It is embedded in the development environment and grounds its responses in a curated corpus of quantum‑software‑engineering knowledge, explaining reproducibility and provenance concepts in context. The assistant augments Qiskit programs with MLflow‑based experiment tracking that follows the QProv schema, thereby reducing reliance on large language models and enabling low‑cost, privacy‑preserving local deployment.
arXiv:2508. 20134v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Programming quantum circuits at the OpenQASM level is essential for achieving hardware-aware optimization and reliable execution on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, yet it remains challenging due to the need for domain-specific planning, iterative code synthesis, and low-level calibration.
arXiv:2605. 25572v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The growing complexity of quantum programming frameworks has exposed a critical limitation in existing large language model (LLM)-based code assistants: general-purpose models hallucinate PennyLane-specific gate names, misplace device configurations, and produce structurally invalid circuits when faced with specialized quantum coding challenges.
arXiv:2603. 13191v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While large language models (LLMs) have transformed AI agents into proficient executors of computational materials science, performing a hundred simulations does not make a researcher.
arXiv:2607. 25834v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantum computers are moving from research laboratories to industrial machines accessible via the cloud and integrated into high-performance computing facilities.
The paper introduces Quantum‑Harbor, a virtual laboratory that lets AI agents interact with quantum systems in a controlled setting, enabling verification of their actions and conclusions. Using this platform, the authors created QIQCBench, a benchmark of 49 expert‑authored tasks covering calibration, control, error correction, compilation, sensing, and networking. Testing 17 state‑of‑the‑art agentic systems on QIQCBench revealed wide variation in verified performance, highlighting a gap between demonstrated capability and reliable operation and positioning Quantum‑Harbor as a foundation for measuring progress toward verified autonomy in quantum engineering.
arXiv:2605. 30358v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Quantum computing remains in the Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) era, with performance constrained by noise.
arXiv:2607. 25865v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantum error correction (QEC) is indispensable for scalable fault-tolerant quantum computing.
arXiv:2608. 07743v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Identifying a meaningful quantum speedup requires more than matching a classical problem to a familiar quantum primitive: the claim must preserve the task, respect access and output models, expose required promises, and remain within a defensible complexity scope.
arXiv:2608. 12936v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As quantum computing progresses from proof-of-principle demonstrations toward practical utility, a significant impediment is the need to augment algorithmic feasibility with system-level optimization across heterogeneous hardware and software stacks.
As quantum computing progresses from proof-of-principle demonstrations toward practical utility, a significant impediment is the need to augment algorithmic feasibility with system-level optimization across heterogeneous hardware and software stacks. Quantum resource estimation (QRE) plays a central role in this transition, yet existing approaches remain largely compilation-heavy or domain-knowledge-guided symbolic annotations, and tightly coupled to long-term fault-tolerant assumptions, limiting their topical applicability.
arXiv:2607. 04072v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models can generate plausible quantum code, but it is unclear whether they can reliably target the specific software development kit (SDK) version requested by the user.
arXiv:2605. 27729v2 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The 2024-2025 Nobel and Turing awards recognised AI and quantum science simultaneously.
