Guillaume Verdon Biography

Guillaume "Gill" Verdon is a researcher and engineer specializing in quantum computing, artificial intelligence, and cryptography. He has contributed to pioneering work at the intersection of quantum computing and machine learning, helping to explore how quantum algorithms can enhance AI and provide new computational capabilities beyond classical methods.

Verdon founded Extropic, an AI hardware company, in 2022 to meet the demanding power and computation requirements of generative AI. Extropic is commercializing a novel approach to computing called thermodynamic computing, resulting in far more energy-efficient and performant processors for AI. Previously, Verdon spearheaded physics and AI research and development at Alphabet X, where he co-created TensorFlow Quantum (TFQ) in collaboration with NASA and Google.
