Regulated industries still rely on people to manually review large volumes of docs against policies and procedures. kintera.ai/ is using AI to turn that work into automated, auditable workflows. Already in production with financial institutions. #MITSTEXPortfolio

Recording below!
Session 1 is in the books! 🎉 300+ of you joined us last Wednesday as NVIDIA's Efrat Shabtai and Monica Van Dieren kicked off the qBraid Community Webinar Series with CUDA-Q. What they covered: • What CUDA-Q is, and why hybrid quantum-classical programming is now the default rather than the exception • Live demos on qBraid, sending kernels to NVIDIA GPUs and real QPUs from the same notebook cell • Ising models, plus the AI NVIDIA is building to read calibration plots and decode surface codes, two of the hardest problems on the road to fault tolerance 🎥 Missed it? Full recording here: piped.video/watch?v=hOuAHmya… 🗓️ Next up: Nanoacademic on Aug. 24 with registration here: luma.com/irlk2rea #QuantumComputing #CUDAQ #qBraid
