- Why
- Roadmap is credibly backed ($50M Illinois public-private partnership since 2025 involving IQMP, the National Quantum Algorithms Center, University of Chicago and P33, general ARPA-E/U.S. Army program ties, and NVIDIA NVQLink hybrid-AI/GPU integration) but the flagship 50-to-100 logical-qubit claim is unverified pre-deployment, with current demonstrated capability limited to physical-qubit array milestones (1,600-atom array, 99.73% two-qubit fidelity) from 2025. A specific 'ARPA-E ENCODE' grid-optimization award and named partners Constellation Energy/EPRI, present in an earlier draft of this record, could not be verified against primary sources during adversarial review and were dropped.
- Next
- Re-evaluate at Illinois system delivery (2027) or on first independent/third-party logical-qubit benchmark disclosure, whichever comes first.
