You don't believe HSBC has anything real using quantum computing to do bonds trading do you?...
Must be HSBC from Hong Kong bought IBM shares as they're a financial institution to cash on the hype don't you think?
Hopefully this is the last hype Alvind pulls to cash his shares as he finally steps down, claiming success of course!
Never trust analysts nor IBM Research BS!
@aq noise,random noise is the technical to business problem quantum trying to simulate here. Prediction via noise.
@e2 IBM is in a race (to the bottom) to become the worst of the worst tech companies in the US. Sorry, make that the worst in the world.
And it shows with every passing week. Particularly with a Tamil Indian CEO who cannot even keep Red Hat going. Useless id--t.
AK will be gone before the end of Q1 2026.
The real problem is that the next CEO is very likely to be even worse.
It doesn't matter (even if it could). The pattern would be the same. IBM wants to "pioneer" and "be first" to then sc--w up and it never works. Ginni and AK do the same, hype, can't deliver, goes nowhere, desperately find another hype, start the cycle again.
The mediocre management that IBM has had and still has is just inept.
AK is trying to put his head in the sand about his hybrid cloud "strategic move", couldn't deliver, burned the $24b pad in cash for Red Hat... AI? He has no clue where to go with it.... I could go on, but doesn't matter, I made my point, I think.
These people just can't deliver, and on top of that, they are too busy with their short term cost-cutting (make numbers look good for earnings calls) tactics.
AK is also the chairman of the board.... so who controls him or puts pressure on him? Then you have people that don't give a damn, they just care about the stock price. IBM can go nowhere, doesn't matter to them.
My entire point is, where there is something in Quantum or not, doesn't matter. AK just can't make it happen anyway. So the discussion is quite futile.
One interesting thing, other than us and his neighbors, nobody seems to know who the IBM CEO is these days.
A paper submitted to a site with no reviewing?
Noise? Hahaha indeed a noise BS.
Can add noise in other means like using a diode vs the huge near absolute zero cooled expensive IBM quantum white elephant...
Totally nonsense in my view.
But... HSBC uses it to pump IBM shares as most have no clue.
Trust Research to generate such stuff...
Alvind will cash his shares and leave... that could be the best outcome and he can go back to India to become a special consultant for Modi.
Hopefully he takes those other execs with him..
Read the original paper:
https://arxiv.org/abs/2509.17715
Uses very old machine learning algorithms like logistic regression and random forest. Improves the feature selection step by introducing random noise. Uses the quantum computer to generate the noise, that's it, that the only thing the QC does here, generate noise. Compares the performance of the feature selection process with and without noise. The one with noise performs a little better.
Cool result on improving feature selection by adding noise. Nothing to do with Quantum Computing though.
What do you think..? Do you know exactly what quantum has done for trading bonds that cannot be done with classical computing? If you do, please enlighten us...
Or has it seen the future through a wormhole tunnel at the multiverse IBM? LOL
Hype....
Is this st oc k pri ce manipulation?
