Abstract

Abstract Research and usage of artificial intelligence, particularly generative and large language models, have rapidly progressed over the last years. This has, however, given rise to issues due to high energy consumption. While quantum computing is not (yet) mainstream, its intersection with machine learning is especially promising, and the technology could alleviate some of these energy challenges. In this perspective article, we break down the lifecycle stages of large language models and discuss relevant enhancements based on quantum algorithms that may aid energy efficiency and sustainability, including industry application examples and open research problems.

Generative AI in the age of quantum computing: A taxonomy, architectural elements and future directions

Siva Sai, Ishika Goyal, Vinay Chamola +1 more

Generative AI has emerged as a transformative paradigm for diverse applications, yet the escalating scale of modern models exposes critical computational and memory bottlenecks in classical hardware. This paper investigates the intersection of quantum computing and generative artificial intelligence (QGAI) to address these limitations and scale modern generative models. As models grow to billions of parameters, classical systems face bottlenecks in memory, energy, and training efficiency, while quantum computing offers exponential representational benefits for high-dimensional data. The paper analyzes five core quantum generative architectures-Quantum Circuit Born Machines, Quantum Generative Adversarial Networks, Quantum Boltzmann Machines, Quantum Variational Autoencoders, and Quantum Diffusion models, highlighting their design principles, learning mechanisms, and applications. QGAI models have demonstrated significant promise in domains such as drug discovery, human-machine interaction, IoT security, and financial modelling. Despite these advances, QGAI remains constrained by qubit noise, barren plateaus, and integration challenges. We conclude by identifying ten open research challenges and propose directions for achieving scalable, interpretable, and energy-efficient quantum generative learning.

Large Language Models (LLMs) such as GPT and LLaMA have transformed artificial intelligence, but their rapid growth has brought major challenges in computation, energy use, and scalability. Quantum computing (QC) offers a fundamentally different way to process information, with the potential to accelerate key operations in training, inference, optimization, and representation learning. This survey provides a structured and comprehensive review of how QC can support the future development of LLMs. It examines quantum algorithms, hybrid quantum-classical methods, quantum neural networks, quantum embeddings, and security applications. It also evaluates their feasibility in both the current noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) era and the future fault-tolerant era. The survey highlights current progress, identifies major technical barriers, and outlines practical research directions needed to build scalable, efficient, and secure quantum-enhanced language models.
