At Jeff Bezos’ exclusive MARS summit in Florida, Vancouver deep tech CEO Dr. Suzanne Gildert of Nirvanic AI presented a live demo of “KitCat,” a quadruped robot powered by real-time quantum computing from Burnaby’s D-Wave. Gildert’s keynote on quantum consciousness in robotics explored if adaptive, agency-driven machines can be developed for future applications—including space.
Gildert also met Bezos and notable figures like physicist Stephen Wolfram and director Ron Howard. Nirvanic’s research could pioneer self-aware AI, with upcoming presentations in New York and Barcelona. The company’s ultimate aim: to advance understanding of machine and human consciousness.
