NVIDIA Launches Ising, the World’s First Open AI Models to Accelerate the Path to Useful Quantum Computers NVIDIA Ising Delivers Breakthrough Performance in Quantum Calibration and Error Correction, Empowering Researchers and Enterprises to Build Scalable, High-Performance Quantum Systems.
The NVIDIA Ising open model family delivers the world’s best AI-based quantum processor calibration capabilities, as well as quantum error-correction decoding that is up to 2.5x faster and 3x more accurate than traditional approaches.
Leading quantum enterprises, academic institutions and research labs adopting Ising include Academia Sinica, Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Infleqtion, IQM Quantum Computers, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s Advanced Quantum Testbed and the U.K. National Physical Laboratory (NPL).
NVIDIA today announced the world’s first family of open source quantum AI models, NVIDIA Ising, designed to help researchers and enterprises build quantum processors capable of running useful applications.
To achieve useful quantum applications at scale, significant breakthroughs are needed in quantum processor calibration and quantum error correction. AI is key for turning today’s quantum processors into large-scale, reliable computers. Open models empower developers to build high-performance AI while maintaining total control over their data and infrastructure.
Named after a landmark mathematical model that dramatically simplified the understanding of complex physical systems, the NVIDIA Ising family provides high-performance, scalable AI tools for quantum error correction and calibration — two of the most critical challenges in building hybrid-quantum classical systems.
Ising models run the world’s best quantum processor calibration and enable researchers to tackle much larger, more complex problems with quantum computers by delivering up to 2.5x faster performance and 3x higher accuracy for the decoding process needed for quantum error correction.
“AI is essential to making quantum computing practical,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “With Ising, AI becomes the control plane — the operating system of quantum machines — transforming fragile qubits to scalable and reliable quantum-GPU systems.”

The interest of large tech companies in quantum computing is starting to increase, and a greater flow of capital as well as a technology race can accelerate the adoption of this technology, as is currently happening in AI.
Bank of America estimates that by 2030 all blockchain networks must have updated their post-quantum cryptography systems, emphasizing both those networks that are slow to make changes, as well as inactive and old wallets, which will be completely vulnerable, with about 1.7 million BTC exposed.
Will quantum computing arrive before protection, or will it catch protocols off guard?
