I wonder if this means that ai will have more capabilities with quantum computing.

So far, I haven't read how those chips are programmed, but it seems like it requires to re learn almost everything.

I don't even know if there is an OS for those.

that's not the way to think about quantum computing AFAIK.

Think of these as accelerators you use to run some specific algorithm the result of which your "normal" application uses.

More akin to GPUs: your "normal" applications running on "normal" CPUs offload some specific computation to the GPU and then use the result.
