<p>When it comes to major disruptive technologies like AI, data analytics, and quantum computing, many companies are playing to not lose. That’s fine, but if like us at Zapata you want to play to win, you have to realize that waiting is not an action. Andy Walter knows that with his extensive experience in corporate IT evolution and&nbsp;digital transformation from the last 3 decades. Now he has a book by the same title – Waiting Is Not An Action. If playing to win sounds more appealing than playing to not lose, this is the episode for you.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Please fill out <strong>The Quantum Pod listener survey!</strong> <a href="https://forms.office.com/r/APZWp55NQ0" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>https://forms.office.com/r/APZWp55NQ0</u></a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Quantum Computing Now episode with Christopher Savoie: <a href="https://anchor.fm/quantumcomputingnow/episodes/Dr--Christopher-Savoie-and-Life-Sciences--Episode-22-Hybrid-ekasji" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>https://anchor.fm/quantumcomputingnow/episodes/Dr--Christopher-Savoie-and-Life-Sciences--Episode-22-Hybrid-ekasji</u></a></p> <p>Learn more about Orquestra: <a href="https://www.orquestra.io/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>https://www.orquestra.io/</u></a></p> <p>Quantum computing patents filed report from QED-C: <a href="https://quantumconsortium.org/blog/trends-in-quantum-computing-patents/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>https://quantumconsortium.org/blog/trends-in-quantum-computing-patents/</u></a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Racecar sound is from <a href="https://freesound.org/people/FreqMan/sounds/19850/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>Nascar-TMS-1998.mp3</u></a> by <a href="https://freesound.org/people/FreqMan/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>FreqMan</u></a></p> <p>Intro/Outro music: Oblivious by Nihilore (<a href="https://www.nihilore.com/synthwave" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>https://www.nihilore.com/synthwave</u></a>)</p> <p>Nihilore license: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode</u></a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Follow us on Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/zapatacomputing" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>https://twitter.com/zapatacomputing</u></a></p> <p>Follow us on LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/zapata-computing" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>https://www.linkedin.com/company/zapata-computing</u></a></p> <p>The Quantum Pod is produced by <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>Zapata Computing</u></a></p> <p>Host: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/ethan-hansen/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>Ethan Hansen</u></a></p> <p>Guest: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/andy-walter/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>Andy Walter</u></a></p> <p>Editing and commentary: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/ethan-hansen/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>Ethan Hansen</u></a></p> <p>Special thanks to: <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/mick-emmett/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>Mick Emmett</u></a> and <a href="https://www.zapatacomputing.com/team/katherine-londergan/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><u>Katherine Londergan</u></a></p>
