The Quantum Artificial Intelligence Lab (also called the Quantum AI Lab or QuAIL) is a joint initiative of NASA, Universities Space Research Association, and Google (specifically, Google Research) whose goal is to pioneer research on how quantum computing might help with machine learning and other difficult computer science problems.
[1][2] The Quantum AI Lab was announced by Google Research in a blog post on May 16, 2013.
[1][3] On October 10, 2013, Google released a short film describing the current state of the Quantum AI Lab.
[7][8][9] In January 2014, Google reported results comparing the performance of the D-Wave Two in the lab with that of classical computers.
A quantum computer powerful enough to solve a wide range of real-world problems is still years - and billions of dollars - away.
