AI Will Soon Give Way to Quantum Computing

Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger predicted that the current AI boom will last a few more years, after which it will be replaced by the mass adoption of quantum computing. Graphics cards, he says, will gradually become obsolete.

Pat Gelsinger, who previously led Intel, told Financial Times that the current AI hype will not end due to declining interest, but because of a “quantum breakthrough.”

He emphasized that the mass deployment of quantum computers will be a turning point for the market, and current graphics cards will gradually fade into the past. Gelsinger calls quantum computing the “holy trinity” alongside classical and AI architectures, and believes they will become mainstream in just a few years, not decades as NVIDIA’s Jensen Huang predicts.

“If a real technological leap occurs in the quantum field, it will be the ‘needle’ that bursts the current AI bubble,” Gelsinger said.

He also drew an analogy between the Microsoft-OpenAI alliance and the historical example of Bill Gates and IBM: OpenAI, according to him, provides core software models that rely on Microsoft’s massive computing resources.

Gelsinger also recalled how his name appeared on Intel processors 40 years ago, when the young engineer found an unconventional solution in front of one of the company’s founders.
