IBM, Microsoft, and Intel are racing to develop a quantum computer. Some say that the first such machines will be ready as soon as this year. I reached out to seven experts to explain how quantum computing can change the world as we know it.

Create life-saving medicines and solve some of science’s most complex problems

Quantum computing will revolutionize Artificial Intelligence(AI). The basic principle of AI is that the more feedback you give a computer program, the more accurate it becomes. This feedback calculates probabilities from many possible choices and results in the program displaying “intelligence”and improved performance.

Quantum computers rapidly analyze huge quantities of data so they can significantly shorten the AI learning curve. If technology becomes more intuitive it will create huge impact in every Industry. We’ll be able to do things we never thought possible from creating life-saving medicines to solving some of science’s most complex problems.
