The argument is that quantum's trajectory may mirror AI's: years of quiet, under-the-radar progress — such as advances in quantum error correction and neutral atom arrays — could culminate in a sudden 'ChatGPT moment' that makes quantum practical for business use. Businesses are advised to begin assessing quantum use cases and strategies now, before that inflection point arrives without warning, to avoid being caught flat-footed as many were with AI. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What recent technical advances in quantum computing suggest it could become practical soon? Two key advances bring quantum practicality closer: exponential improvements in quantum error correction, and the introduction of neutral atom arrays as a way to build more flexible and nimble quantum computers. These developments have largely flown under the radar outside the quantum research community, similar to the quiet LLM and transformer architecture progress that preceded ChatGPT's debut. _Teams evaluating quantum readiness track these kinds of milestones on daily.dev before they become mainstream news._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [The great AI hype correction of 2025](https://daily.dev/posts/the-great-ai-hype-correction-of-2025-3tmijcbky) · MIT Technology Review · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [IBM Study Finds Quantum Computing Is Coming, But Enterprises Aren’t Ready](https://daily.dev/posts/ibm-study-finds-quantum-computing-is-coming-but-enterprises-aren-t-ready-w9ef7muin) · The Quantum Insider · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Quantum meets AI: The next cybersecurity battleground](https://daily.dev/posts/quantum-meets-ai-the-next-cybersecurity-battleground-77gxz54bu) · CSO Online · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#ai](https://daily.dev/tags/ai), [#genai](https://daily.dev/tags/genai), [#chatgpt](https://daily.dev/tags/chatgpt), [#quantum-computing](https://daily.dev/tags/quantum-computing) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/what-the-history-of-ai-suggests-about-the-future-of-quantum-computing-38fak4rey) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"What the History of AI Suggests about the Future of Quantum Computing","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/what-the-history-of-ai-suggests-about-the-future-of-quantum-computing-38fak4rey","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/what-the-history-of-ai-suggests-about-the-future-of-quantum-computing-38fak4rey"},"datePublished":"2026-08-11T17:32:31.840Z","dateModified":"2026-09-14T08:05:52.724Z","description":"Quantum computing has struggled to achieve real-world impact despite decades of development, much like AI did before ChatGPT's release in November 2022.
