This study demonstrates how reinforcement learning can autonomously optimize microwave pulses for superconducting qubits, achieving a tenfold reduction in error rates compared to random search methods without requiring pre-defined circuit models. While currently validated via simulation, this adaptive framework offers a promising hardware-ready pathway for scaling high-precision quantum state preparation on near-term devices.

Optimizing microwave pulses without pre-defined parameters previously relied heavily on chance encounters. Now, an autonomous artificial intelligence has learned to discover high-performance pulse sequences exceeding those found by random search alone. This fully adaptable approach promises faster, lower-error quantum state preparation across diverse superconducting devices, beginning with successful simulations of hydrogen molecules.

A reinforcement learning network can now autonomously discover high-performance pulse sequences using solely system parameters and a reward function. This approach applies generally to superconducting qubit platforms, requiring no ansatz and operating at nanosecond resolution consistent with hardware limitations. Applying this method to ground-state preparation of the Hydrogen molecule on a simulated superconducting device serves as…
