The Race for Quantum Supremacy and the Quantum Artificial Intelligence of Things By Carlos Pedro Gonçalves

https://www.academia.edu/43695119/The_Race_for_Quantum_Supremacy_and_the_Quantum_Artificial_Intelligence_of_Things?sm=b&rhid=40222982448 Two technological races, drivers of disruptive change and geostrategic (re)positioning of the great powers, are currently taking place: the quantum technological race and the Artificial Intelligence (AI) race. The present article develops a strategic and technological reflection on the meeting point between these two races, this reflection leads us to the Quantum Artificial Intelligence of Things linked to a Quantum Internet of Things, we discuss these two concepts and provide an experimental example of a utility maximizing quantum robot endowed with a Quantum Recurrent Neural Network works on a decision problem, implemented on IBM's quantum computers, this example is used for a reflection on the strategic challenges coming from the QIoT and the QAIoT, ranging from geopolitical challenges to the issue of the technological singularity. ...
