University of Waterloo - Using quantum algorithms to speed up generative artificial intelligence - Education News Canada

Researchers at the University of Waterloo's Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) have found that quantum algorithms could speed up generative artificial intelligence (AI) creation and usage.The paper titled Gibbs Sampling of Continuous Potentials on a Quantum Computer by Pooya Ronagh, IQC member and professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, and Arsalan Motamedi, IQC alum and researcher at Canadian quantum computing company Xanadu, explores how quantum algorithms can relieve bottlenecks in generative AI. The paper was instrumental in securing $412,500 from the National Research Council's Applied Quantum Computing grant, which will fund further research in this area.
