The End of Moore's Law. The Beginning of the Next Era of Computing There is no better place to begin than with the biggest story in computing. For almost 80 years, the industry has been driven by one simple idea: make computers faster. From the invention of the transistor to mainframes, personal computers, cloud computing and AI, every generation has benefited from extraordinary gains in processing power, driven by the steady progress described by Moore's Law. But this paradigm is now reaching its natural limits. Engineering innovation continues, but as transistors approach near-atomic scale, shrinking them further no longer delivers the exponential improvements in performance, cost, and energy efficiency that transformed computing for decades. At the same time, demand for computing is accelerating, fueled by AI, scientific discovery and increasingly complex industrial challenges. The next chapter of computing has begun and it promises to be even more remarkable. Welcome to the first edition of Quantum Untangled. Each month we'll explore how quantum computing is developing alongside AI, high-performance computing and next-generation processors. We'll explain the technology in straightforward language, share our latest developments, and hear from the researchers and engineers shaping the future of computing. Quantum computing is no longer confined to research laboratories. Earlier this year, we found that 96% of business leaders expect quantum computing to have an impact on their organizations. The question is no longer if, but when. We are helping shape that future. Beyond Moore's Law Quantum computing is not a replacement for today's computers, nor is it simply a faster version of them. Instead, it is designed to solve a different class of problems: those involving enormous numbers of possible combinations or the simulation of complex quantum systems. Researchers believe quantum computing could transform fields including drug discovery, advanced materials, financial optimization, logistics and
