23-05-2024 14:35 23-05-2024 15:05 Europe/Madrid Quantum IoT: Overhyped, Underestimated or Is It a Matter of Your Position? The hype cycle around quantum computing is as real as it is often detached from reality. The noise gets louder (pun intended) and exponentially inflates the promises of what quantum will unlock—from medicines to cures, materials to markets and climate change. How do you separate fact from fiction, fear from farce, and the fatalists from futurists? And what will it really mean for connected devices? This session will take an evidence-based approach to cut through the hype, fatigue, timelines, players, and immediate and long-term impacts to IoT devices in the field and those yet to be deployed. We’ll explore how quantum disadvantage is the precursor to quantum advantage and supremacy, and what it means for the IoT devices you build and manage. We’ll debunk Q-day and compare simple business math with the hard math NIST’s new quantum-safe cryptography standards are based on. And we’ll provide a quantum roadmap for the future that every IoT leader will wish they’d known sooner. Hang on to your cubits, it’s going to be a noisy ride. Room 4
