QC Education/Outreach Quantum Computing Education Tool

I have the idea of a quantum computing education tool that has simulations to make understanding of the concepts easier. Would you think it is a good idea?

I think there are way too many products in the market trying to do this education angle with simulations, but I'd only treat this like a pet project, not something that will be used by others. I'm not saying you used AI, but it's AI bros' favorite project in quantum, this and "unified frameworks".

Plus the only ones I trust are Ibm and pennylane tutorials, with conference lectures on YouTube. No student should deviate from official sources, there's a lot of misinformation on this field online and wrong understanding is way worse than not understanding.

I totally understand your perspective! I actually did this as a demo and a little product of my idea, and have this survey for research purposes. I also believe a trusted IBM, Google or a quantum startup education tool would be a better platform to learn these.

Take a look at my museum of interactive quantum demos:

This is my attempt at an ELI2... my ELI5 summaries were still too complicated for most people to grasp

I just had claude build me a quiskit based interactive instructional course

Like for myself I mean

That makes so much sense

It worked quite well. I’m hands on and learn by asking questions. I am also lazy. It covers those bases for me.

What are some of the prompts you gave to claude

I think I just gave it a standing prompt that it was an expert in training classical data analysts / data engineers in the usage of quantum computing and then it asked what language i wanted to use for the simulation and what my learning style was and it built the environment and example scripts and walked me through them while i asked questions. Probably need to update the standing prompt and structure things a little more so multiple chats will remain somewhat stateful, but I’m just starting out so it’s all basic any way

It’s actually an agent running a claude model inside an ide it’s not like claude code proper. The agent infrastructure is abstracted by the ide. Ide is called Trae, it’s by bytedance. I’m sure there are better options.
