Mergingquantum computing with artificial intelligence (AI)has been on the priority list for researchers and scientists. Even though quantum computing is still in the early phases of development, there have been many innovations and breakthrough. However, it is still unclear on whether the world will change for good or bad when AI is totally influenced by quantum computing.

Quantum computingis similar to traditional computing. It relies on bits, which are 0s and 1s to encode information. The data keeps growing despite limiting it. Moores law has observed that the number of transistors on integrated circuits wills double every two years, making way for tech giants to run the race of making the smallest chips. This has also induced tech companies to compete for the first launch of a viable quantum computer that would be exponentially more powerful than todays computers. The futuristic computer will process all the data we generate and solve increasingly complex problems.

Remarkably, the use ofquantum algorithms in artificial intelligencetechniques will boost machines learning abilities. This will lead to improvements in an unprecedented way. The main goal of the merger is to achieve a so-calledquantum advantage, where complex algorithms can be calculated significantly faster than with the best classical computer. The expected change will be a breakthrough in AI. Experts and business leaders predict thatquantum computings processing powercould begin to improve AI systems within about five years. However, combining AI and quantum is considered scary from an angle. The late researcher and scientist Stephen Hawking has said that the development of full AI could spell the end of the human race. Once humans develop AI, it will take off on its own and redesign itself at an ever-increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution couldnt compete and would supersede.

Can solve complex problems quickly

One of the major expectations that people have fromquantum computingis to have increased computational skill. It is predicted that quantum computers will be able to complete calculations within seconds that would take thousands of years to calculate. Google claims that the company has a quantum computer that is 100 million times faster than any existing computer. This futuristic and quick way of calculating will solve all the data problems in minutes if not seconds. The key to availing the transition is by converting all the existing data into quantum language.

Enhance warfighter capabilities

Even though the improvement of quantum computing is in the initial stage, it is expected to enhance warfighter capabilities significantly in the future. It is predicted that quantum computing is likely to impact ISR (intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance), solving logistic problems more quickly. While we know the types of problems and general application space, optimisation problems will be some of the first where we will see advantages.

Applications in the banking sector

Malpractice and constant forgeries are common in the banking and financial sector. Fortunately, the combination of AI with quantum computing might help improve and combat fraud detection. Models trained using a quantum computer will be capable of detecting patterns that are hard to spot using conventional equipment. Meanwhile, the acceleration of algorithms will yield great advantages in terms of the volume of information that the machines handle for this purpose.

Help integrate data from different datasets

Quantum computers are anticipated to be experts in merging different datasets. Although this seems quite impossible without human intervention in the initial phase, computers will eventually learn to integrate data in the future. Henceforth, if there are different raw data sources with unique schema attached to them and a research team wants to compare them, a computer would have to understand the relationship between the schemas before the data could be compared.

All is not good though

In some way, AI and quantum computing worry people with an equal amount of expectations it gives. Quantum computing technology will be very futuristic, but we cant assure you that it is human-friendly. It could be far better than humans suppressing people in their jobs. Quantum computing also poses athreat to security. The latest Thales Data Threat report says that 72% of surveyed security experts worldwide believe quantum computing will have a negative impact on data security within the next five years.
