NVIDIA Signals Quantum Shift, Urges US Congress to Fund Hybrid AI Supercomputing Initiative

NVIDIA is urging Congress to reauthorize the National Quantum Initiative (NQI), emphasizing that future U.S. leadership depends on integrating quantum computing with AI and high-performance supercomputing.

• The company argues this approach is necessary to move past quantum systems developed in isolation.
• This stance carries added weight as CEO Jensen Huang, who was previously skeptical, now views quantum computing as a necessary component of future scientific computing systems.
