QuEra has AI develop and verify quantum computer laser lock recovery and tuning
What happened
Reported October 14, QuEra used MHS to have Claude develop and verify a laser lock recovery program for a quantum computer on a real testbed. The program recovered 695 of 700 trials, a 99.3% success rate; recovery took 0.9 to 5.4 seconds, and the hardest faults about 10 to 14 seconds. Automated tuning cut residual frequency noise to one fifth of the original and ran about 19 hours unattended with zero loss of lock. The recovery program runs without AI; the tuning pipeline still needs AI at runtime. Both are verified on the testbed, with real machines next.

QuEra通过MHS让Claude在真实测试台上开发并验证激光锁定恢复程序，在700次试验中成功恢复695次，成功率为99.3%。恢复耗时为0.9至5.4秒，最困难的故障约需10至14秒；自动调优将残余频率噪声降至原来的五分之一，并在约19小时无人值守测试中实现零次失锁。恢复程序运行时不需要AI参与，调优流程仍由AI参与运行，两者已在测试台验证，下一步将用于实际机器。
