Quantum AI Intermediate — 096: stress-test transpilation ladders on `Cross-vendor fidelity comparisons` — memo `179217 [96]`

Lesson 096: Cross-vendor fidelity comparisons

Focus

Bias toward repeatable experiment notebooks: circuits, mitigation settings, timestamps. Token Cross-vendor fidelity comparisons:96 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.

Key ideas

• Thread: Cross-vendor fidelity comparisons · drill v6 · spin 839656.
• Habit: pair each job with shot budget, mitigation profile, and a calibration fingerprint you could paste.
• Guardrail: write one line about where classical cost dominated the timeline.
