Building AI for quantum on classical computers is like designing jets with sailboat tech
AryHHAry · x · 2026-08-17
The author explores the current state of building AI on classical computers to run on quantum hardware, likening it to designing jets with sailboat technology. The post notes that quantum computing isn't just speed but solving classically intractable problems (e.g., atomic-level drug simulation). The author identifies three gaps—hardware stability, ethics, and talent—and mentions building the infrastructure for it.
