Marks & Clerk Report: Quantum AI Patent Boom
The British firm published its annual report and highlighted that Quantum AI (QAI) applications — the convergence of AI and quantum computing — are growing at the European Patent Office (EPO).
Highlights:
-
QAI patent filings are increasing in line with the overall growth of AI.
-
However, the allowance rate for QAI is roughly 4% lower than for classical AI — a sign of greater technical complexity or stricter evaluation.
-
The market for quantum-AI-driven optimization could surpass US $2 billion by 2030.
