At VivaTech 2025 in Paris, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang stated that quantum computing has reached a critical turning point and will be capable of solving practical problems within the next few years.
Huang emphasized that quantum computers are becoming more reliable and powerful, and that their integration with classical systems is opening new horizons for artificial intelligence. He noted that the number of logical qubits is expected to increase tenfold every five years, and by a factor of 100 in the next decade, significantly accelerating the development of large language models and other AI applications.
NVIDIA is actively advancing its CUDA‑Q platform, which integrates quantum and classical computing, allowing developers to leverage the strengths of both technologies. Huang also announced a partnership with the French startup Pasqal, which is working on quantum processors based on neutral atoms.
These announcements sparked a rise in the stock prices of quantum tech companies such as IonQ and Rigetti Computing, reflecting growing investor interest in the sector.
Thus, NVIDIA is betting on quantum computing as a key enabler of the future of AI, joining forces with European partners to accelerate progress in this field.
