IonQ and D-Wave. And actually, I want to look at the shares of those companies. There was some

the bar here, some of the time I say something right.

And sometimes it comes out wrong.

Now here's the thing.

In the world of technology, historically at least, these have been two distinct fields, quantum computing and accelerated computing or supercomputers for AI. But increasingly, those worlds are coming together. Joining me now is Tim Costa, who's the senior director for quantum computing at

Nvidia.

And I think a really important place to start is what Nvidia does and what Nvidia does not do.

Invidia does not make quantum computers, nor does it sell quantum computers, but it does
