“While quantum computers won ’ t likely be running large language models any time soon , there is significant potential in improving many areas of traditional AI and machine learning ”
SCOTT BUCHHOLZ CTO , GLOBAL QUANTUM COMPUTING LEADER DELOITTE
challenges surrounding building largescale , fault-tolerant quantum computers . Tackling these challenges requires collaboration and extensive efforts . This month , Technology Magazine speaks to Deloitte ’ s Global Quantum Computing Leader Scott Buchholz , whose team recently collaborated with the World Economic Forum to release a report on how organisations and governments can prepare a sound quantum strategy as the world inches closer to wider adoption .
How business and tech leaders can prepare for a quantum future Despite these hurdles , organisations are already investigating how quantum computing and related technologies will impact their businesses . In the near term , quantum computers may be able to solve certain optimisation , machine learning , and simulation problems faster or more accurately than classical approaches .
“ Organisations are still investigating how and when quantum computing and other quantum technologies will affect their businesses ,” Buccholz tells us . While almost all industries will eventually be impacted , some – like financial services and transportation – will feel the impact sooner rather than later .
