Strategic Alliance Agreement Will Explore
Benchmarking Industrial Generative AI Techniques on Quantum
Hardware.
Zapata AI, a software company building solutions to enterprises’
most computationally complex problems, today announced it has
entered a strategic alliance with IonQ (NYSE: IONQ), an industry
leader in quantum computing hardware and commercial quantum
application development. Building on years of previous work
together, the teams will benchmark generative AI techniques on
quantum hardware to uncover new potential advantages of quantum
computing that could help solve complex real-world business
problems.
This alliance expands previous quantum collaboration between
IonQ and Zapata with a focus on generative AI. The partnership will
bring Zapata’s application development experts and IonQ’s
scientists, advanced compute technology, and services together to
deliver on joint generative AI projects. Additionally, the
partnership will also drive joint go-to-market activities to scale
the delivery of IonQ’s advanced compute services with Zapata’s
products for enterprise customers.
“IonQ’s commercial success is a reflection of the value that our
customers attribute to our systems, yet the onramp into quantum
computing can be challenging. Our partnership with Zapata will
remove roadblocks and accelerate quantum adoption,” said Rima
Alameddine, CRO at IonQ. “We are excited to continue our work with
Zapata and are confident that this partnership will drive new
breakthroughs in the development of generative AI models and help
enterprise companies better solve industrial-scale problems.”
This strategic agreement builds upon a proven track record of
the two companies working together successfully, including a
first-of-its-kind project to generate high-quality, real-world data
using quantum hardware, as well as a multi-year award for quantum
benchmarking from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
(DARPA).
“We’re looking forward to building on our previous work together
and diving deeper into quantum generative AI,” said Yudong Cao, CTO
and co-founder at Zapata. “Quantum-enhanced generative modeling is
the first place we expect to see a quantum advantage for industrial
problems, including drug discovery, optimization, language
processing, and predictive analytics. We’re excited to see what
impact we could create with IonQ’s advanced technology.”

by the use of forward- looking words. Statements that are not
historical in nature, including the words “anticipate,” “expect,”
“suggests,” “plan,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimates,” “targets,”
“projects,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “may,” “will,” “forecast”
and other similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. These statements include those related
to the ability to run human cognition models on quantum hardware;
the use of human cognition models to improve decision making models
that imitate human thought; the potential for more complex circuits
to lead to better decision making models in a variety of fields;
and the impact of quantum computers’ ability to emulate human
decision-making processes. Forward-looking statements are
predictions, projections and other statements about future events
that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a
result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could
cause actual future events to differ materially from the
forward-looking statements in this press release, including but not
limited to: market adoption of quantum computing solutions and
IonQ’s products, services and solutions; the ability of IonQ to
protect its intellectual property; changes in the competitive
industries in which IonQ operates; changes in laws and regulations
affecting IonQ’s business; IonQ’s ability to implement its business
plans, forecasts and other expectations, and identify and realize
additional partnerships and opportunities; and the risk of
downturns in the market and the technology industry including, but
not limited to, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and/or
increased inflationary pressures. The foregoing list of factors is
not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors
and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk
Factors” section of IonQ’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
