🚀 I'm thrilled to share that the qiskit-ibm-transpiler library has moved up to #3 in the @unitary.foundation 2025 Survey under Full-stack development platforms, compilers, and simulators. Last year, we were #4 — and this year’s leap is a testament to the incredible work of the team behind it.

⚠Paper alert!
In this new paper we introduce a RL-based synthesis pass for Pauli Networks (Clifford + arbitrary angle Pauli rotation circuits), and an optimization pass for general circuits that uses this Pauli Network synthesis pass.

The Qiskit Code Assistant service now exposes compatible endpoints with OpenAI's Completions API. This integration enables seamless usage via existing libraries (OpenAI, LiteLLM, etc.), making it easy to infuse Qiskit knowledge into your LLM pipelines.

How we implemented test-time computing for open models to solve complex math problems like OpenAI o1. 👀 Test-time compute methods use dynamic inference strategies to have LLMs “think longer” on harder problems, e.g. difficult math problems.

I'll get straight to the point.
We trained 2 new models. Like BERT, but modern. ModernBERT.
Not some hypey GenAI thing, but a proper workhorse model, for retrieval, classification, etc. Real practical stuff.
It's much faster, more accurate, longer context, and more useful. 🧵
