NASA is constantly confronting massively challenging computational problems. These problems have the potential to limit mission scope and aim. NASA's Quantum Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (QuAIL) Group was formed to determine the potential for quantum computation to enable more ambitious NASA missions in the future. This presentation highlights recent work by the QuAIL team that is focused on physics insights and applications associated with the D-Wave 2000Q quantum annealing hardware that is located at NASA Ames Research Center.

Quantum Artificial Intelligence: A Brief Survey

Matthias Klusch, Jörg Lässig, Daniel Müssig +2 more

Quantum Artificial Intelligence (QAI) is the intersection of quantum computing and AI, a technological synergy with expected significant benefits for both. In this paper, we provide a brief overview of what has been achieved in QAI so far and point to some open questions for future research. In particular, we summarize some major key findings on the feasability and the potential of using quantum computing for solving computationally hard problems in various subfields of AI, and vice versa, the leveraging of AI methods for building and operating quantum computing devices.

Quantum computing–a commercial reality?

The 300 or so scientists, journalists and entrepreneurs who gathered at the Computer History Museum in California's Silicon Valley on 13 February had, on the face of it, come to see a man solve a Sudoku puzzle on a laptop. Why did they bother turning up, you might ask. The reason was that the puzzle was apparently not being solved by the laptop, but by another computer, connected over the Internet, that was sitting in a lab in Vancouver. This second computer was no ordinary digital device but, according to the company D-Wave carrying out the demonstration, the "world's first commercially viable quantum computer".
