#. `Quantum Algorithms <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ysVGWtAjio>`_ (2:52).

   "Which problems can quantum computers solve exponentially faster than classical computers? David Gosset, IBM quantum computing research scientist, explains why algorithms are key to finding out."

#. `Benchmarking Quantum Systems <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7L5o-mzLqU&list=PLOFEBzvs-VvpzQnlazij7cL1mjKvJTAwk&index=8>`_ (1:58)

   "As we build ever larger quantum computers capable of performing increasingly complex algorithms, it is important to define a metric to quantify their power. IBM quantum computing research scientist Lev Bishop has defined a new metric called Quantum Volume that characterizes what a quantum computer is capable of “calculating.” The metric is architecturally neutral and can be applied to all types of quantum systems."
