Rigetti Articulated A Credible Path To Quantum Advantage, Still A 'Buy'
We once looked forward to Y2K. Now, it's Y2.3K (about 2030), also known as Quantum Advantage. That's when we expect quantum computers, like the ones Rigetti Computing (RGTI) is working on, to really be ready for prime time. Different companies are pursuing different roadmaps to get there. They're all working to maximize fidelity (accuracy) and also maximize speed, which makes fidelity harder to achieve. Within quantum, Rigetti's superconducting protocol makes it the group's speed demon. But it's behind on fidelity, at 91%. The near-term goal is 99.5%, and ultimately, it's aiming at 99.9%.
