Xanadu and AMD have launched Backline, an open-source platform integrated with PennyLane, to enable ultra-low-latency communication between quantum processors and classical hardware like CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs. The platform aims to democratize access by supporting standard AMD CPUs and avoiding vendor lock-in, facilitating hybrid quantum-classical computing for real-world applications.
