Artificial intelligence and quantum computing are advancing rapidly, and their convergence is opening new opportunities in computation and problem solving. This session provides a clear, non-technical overview of quantum computing concepts and how they can complement AI. Attendees will learn about recent advancements in the field, including progress toward fault-tolerant quantum computing, and how these developments are enabling hybrid approaches that combine classical and quantum methods. The talk will explore practical examples where quantum-enhanced techniques are being investigated for optimization, machine learning, and simulation tasks, highlighting realistic possibilities for the near future. By the end of the session, participants will gain a grounded understanding of what “quantum AI” means today, what to expect in the coming years, and how these emerging technologies may influence research, industry, and innovation strategies.
