Alice & Bob demonstrates GPU decoding of cat-qubit codes via Nvidia NVQLink

French quantum firm Alice & Bob demonstrated decoding its LDPC-cat error correction codes on Nvidia GPUs via NVQLink and Quantum Machines hardware, using synthetic data. The proof of concept fell short of the real time speed its cat-qubit computers need.
