International research professor and digital diplomacy expert Dr. D.P. Sharma today delivered his keynote address at the prestigious E-Quantum Computing International Summit 2025, organized by the United Scientific Group, USA.
In his keynote, Dr. Sharma stated that the unprecedented speed and scale of quantum computing will transform the world’s operational efficiency in ways that are both unexpected and astonishing.
Highlighting the significance of the Quantum Computing-as-a-Service (QCaaS) model, he said, “QCaaS is democratizing the power of quantum computing by providing quantum processing capabilities through the cloud.” He explained that not only large research institutions but also small and medium-sized enterprises can now leverage this cutting-edge technology without costly hardware investments.
According to Dr. Sharma, QCaaS will revolutionize sectors such as financial modeling, drug discovery, material science, and cybersecurity by solving complex optimization and simulation problems at unparalleled speed. He predicted that the future of QCaaS lies in its deep convergence with High Performance Computing (HPC) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), opening new pathways for efficiency and innovation across industries.
Calling the convergence of quantum computing and AI “the most exciting yet the most dangerous,” Dr. Sharma remarked, “We believe that the most transformative fusion for quantum computing is with transformer architecture — the very technology that powers today’s generative AI.”
He also issued a critical caution: “Quantum computing will challenge humanity to reinvent its own speed, scale, and capability.” He added that this challenge marks the beginning of a new era of triangular convergence among quantum, AI, and cloud technologies, where machines will learn and create with far greater subtlety and speed.
