EeroQ's Values
We’re not saying it’ll be us, but someone is going to realize the full power of building a quantum computer. We’ll need to harness the power carefully, when it comes. This is why we’re sponsoring academic work on the ethics of QC, and will look to build an industry-leading ethics platform led by co-founder Faye Wattleton.
