Quantum computing is where artificial intelligence was 20 years ago. Given the ease with which this technology takes hold, and that quantum systems are on the cloud, it is available to everyone.
Many business leaders think quantum computing is a technology that is still years away from practical use. But not only does the technology exist, a practical quantum future is closer than we think. The field, in fact, has more than 50 years of scientific advancements already behind it. Thousands of developers, scientists, and industry experts learn and conduct research using quantum computers.
Quantum computing is at a stage that artificial intelligence was at 20 years ago, but it has a major advantage on its side: we’ve seen how quickly this technology takes hold, giving an edge to early adopters. Like artificial intelligence (AI), quantum systems are on the cloud, available for anyone – from Fortune 500 companies, to academic institutions, to start-ups – to experiment with and work on new use cases. The path to adoption also involves addressing many of the same business issues as AI: How can I make quantum computing technology accessible to my organisation? How can it enhance my business? How can I ensure we are prepared to take advantage?
