AI today relies on massive compute power to process data and generate fast, context-aware responses.
But I keep wondering: what happens when quantum computing enters the mix?
• Will AI evolve into something fundamentally different? • Could quantum models deliver precise insights about space, Earth systems, or even biological complexity? • Is AI just the warm-up act for a deeper computational revolution?
And what about the hardware side—if quantum chips become viable, what happens to companies like NVIDIA that dominate the current AI stack?
Do they adapt, or get disrupted?
I’m not claiming answers, just curious where others see this going. Is quantum the next layer of intelligence, or a parallel path?

I don't think that quantum compute will interfere with AI much unless it is targeted and QC becomes really cheap (currently sounds unlikely, but we don't know what breakthroughs the future brings.)
Note that AI is basically massive parallel processing of huge vectors - i.e. the baseline input is measured in gigabytes - I currently think it would be one of the last things to be influenced by QC because of that.
