The convergence of Quantum with AI

IIT Bombay

IIT Bombay is a government-funded technical university in Powai, Mumbai, founded in 1958 as one of the original Indian Institutes of Technology; it is an academic institution rather than a company and has no traded equity. Its quantum work is research and teaching rather than product development, centred on quantum information theory, algorithms and error correction among faculty in the physics and electrical engineering departments, and it is one of the Indian institutes participating in the National Quantum Mission's research programme.

IBM Expands Research Collaborations with IISc and IIT Bombay to Advance Quantum-Centric Supercomputing and Sovereign AI

IBM is broadening research ties with the Indian Institute of Science and IIT Bombay. The collaborations will explore quantum-centric supercomputing, hybrid classical-quantum systems, AI for energy and scientific workloads, and tuning large language models for Indian languages. The stated goal is to bring advanced quantum and AI software efforts into closer alignment.

OutlookPlausible

Within two years, these partnerships could produce hybrid quantum-classical workflows for fine-tuning or optimizing Indic-language large language models on IBM's quantum-centric infrastructure.
