The future pioneered by sustainable AI through the collaboration of quantum software, HPC, and simulation technologies.

Under rapidly changing social conditions,such as the declining birthrate, aging population,and the advancement of DX,utilization of AI is essential to realize an inclusive society.However,conventional machine learning requires more significant training data and complex learning models.Thus,computational time,power consumption,and cost of data collection are becoming severe bottlenecks. In SQAI,we advance quantum machine learning and simulation and integrate them as a quantum HPC infrastructure through quantum embedding and optimization techniques. Through the creation of sustainable quantum AI,we will realize a society in which everyone can fully utilize the latest information technology without energy concerns by implementing a “sustainable virtuous circle that generates emergence” in society.
