All about Error Correction by Shantanu Jha, Ph.D at MIT

In this meeting, we discussed error correction in Quantum Computers and how the principles of error correction are ubiquitous in the world around us. We’d love to hear your feedback and questions for Shantanu Jha. Feel free to share them in the comments! Recommended/mentioned reads during the discussion: -The theoretical minimum by Leonard Susskind -Quantum Computation and Quantum Information by Michael and Isaac -Surely you're joking Mr. Feynman by Feynman -Principles of Quantum Mechanics by Ramamurti Shankar -The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath -The Calculus of Friendship by Steven Strogatz Do you have someone in mind who you think would make an interesting guest? Please share your suggestions in the comments—we’d love to hear who you’d like us to reach out to for a future interview.
