No, but some colleagues do. Also, I think some of my simulation software will start to be used by the project.

Ah cool, will it be open sourced?

I'm on that project myself, we are also dealing with simulating circuits, buuut I feel like we could improve our approach somewhat lol. For example, we had a bunch of trouble trying to speed things up, I immediately thought of trying to make most things run on a GPU but we quickly found out that our circuits just have too few qubits to be parallelized decently.

More importantly, I am not very optimistic (to say the least) about the short- to medium-term real-world applications of quantum circuits we are looking into (we do time series classification, which is quite removed from other domains which work better on these computers), and I got the same feeling from the literature. Should I be feeling differently?
