🧠⚡ Headline: Nvidia Wants to Be the Backbone of Hybrid Quantum–AI Supercomputers
Nvidia announced NVQLink, an interconnect for wiring quantum processors directly into AI/HPC systems at meaningful bandwidths. They’re not building QPUs; they’re positioning themselves as the switch fabric and acceleration layer for everyone else’s qubits.
Why it matters
-
Admits a core truth: quantum needs brutal classical support (error correction, compilation, feedback).
-
Solidifies the hybrid model: quantum won’t replace HPC, it will dock into it.
Strategic angle
-
Future architectures = QPU + GPU + CPU under one orchestration plane.
-
Opens space for orchestration software, scheduling, metrics, and observability in hybrid stacks — exactly the kind of layer a company like yours can own.
