It’s no secret that AI is being adopted and developed at an astonishing rate. According to Stanford University’s 2024 AI Index Report, funding for generative AI experienced a significant increase in 2023, jumping to $25.2 billion, marking an eightfold increase from the previous year.
By now, every company (hopefully) has an AI plan in place, but it’s time to start thinking about where quantum computing fits into that plan. Companies that can envision how quantum computing and AI could be used together—and invest in both—will be well-positioned to gain a competitive edge by drawing on the technologies’ combined advantages while addressing energy demands.
